amazingly well organised, brilliant support all along and lots of marshals! Great course although run gets a bit repetitive but it's great ha I got so many people cheering!

pretty expensive though and not clear if you've paid for the race licence.. I thought I had then had to pay extra on day.. Should just be included!

A great race in a stunning location.

This was my first olympic distance race, but it was a great race for it. The swim was split into two waves which made the start not intimidating. 

For some reason I really struggled to feel comfortable in the wetsuit when I started, which made me quite slow. By the second lap the swim was definitely getting choppier than I would have liked (I'd only had a chance to train in a very still lake), but the support crew in the water were excellent. By the second lap I was the last swimmer, and I got my own kayak escort for the final stretch towards the shore. Also for those at the back of the swim, it was really had to see the little yellow buoy in the middle of the course. Partly due to the waves, but also because the team Oscar people set off with yellow swim caps. From a distance it is hard to distinguish a yellow head from a yellow buoy.

The bike course was absolutely stunning, such a lovely island. All the marshalls were great. There were a few technical parts to the course, but they were described in the pre-race briefing, so even though I didn't know the route, I knew what to look out for. The support from marshalls and locals was also great, the only thing I missed were distance markers for those who don't know the route. Every 10km would be great.

With 4 laps of the harbour, the run was repetitive, but the support from the crowds definitely made up for this. High fives all along the course. The wet sponges were much appreciated.

The massage at the end was great, but unfortunately mine was cut short because the awards ceremony was starting.

I had no idea what to expect from this race, I just wanted to race where i could tag on a holiday for the family.

I was very happy I chose to go to Jersey. The race was small and friendly with about 150 people in the first wave. 

The swim was not intimidating for a sea swim and very calm. The bay is very sheltered and would take some serios weather to get any sort of swell. 

The bike course was a littel twisty but ment that it was interesting and not just a flat out power challenge.

The run was very spectator friendly arround the harbour with no chance f going wrong.

The overiding impression that I got from this race was that it was fun, unpreasured and the local spectator support was amazing I have not been to another race like it!

Fantastic atmosphere with lots of support from the public and marshals. Cycle and run route very well signed and great marshal presence, only suggestion is not to use yellow swimming hats if using small yellow buoys - very difficult to sight when between the big orange ones!

Well done to everyone involved!

As a first timer at Triathlon I was pretty nervous about participating but I needn't have worried. The race organisers were really helpful and were on hand to answer my questions and give me tips for race day, transition, etc. Everyone was really friendly and the turnout of spectators was great. Combining the Super Sprint with the Olympic worked well and made the whole event feel very inclusive. All-in-all, a great start to many more triathlons I hope!!
