Entered the sprint as I’d done the excellent castle to coast last year which is also a fullsteam event, plus I grew up in locally so it was nice to come back for a triathlon. The event itself is good - the swim is well managed (although it was so cold outside there was [full]steam coming off the pool!!), the bike course is fast and flat, and quiet at that time of day, and the run is entirely traffic free around the park, dotted with a few spectators. The out-and back section is a bit narrow in places, but if everyone is being mindful of each other then it’s not a problem. Photos included was nice too, as all my regular spectators were either running or babysitting!! All in all, a good event for beginners or regulars alike, and one I’d definitely do again (preferably with warmer temperatures on the bike!)
