A round trip of 2 hrs for a sprint aquathlon on a wild and wet weekrnd was probably not my smartest choice but when arriving at Dawlish leisure centre in bright sunshine my choices suddenly seemed better.

organisation of the whole event was fantastic, registration was a breeze this probably had a lot to do with the rolling starts and your start time being emailed the day before. There was no race brief as such just some instructions and a map of the run.

entry to the pool and the transition area was on a rolling start so being someone who likes to be early meant i could get my race underway earlier than planned.

not much can be said about the swim, 25m indoor pool 2 swimmers in a lane.

transition was at the end of the pool, the run was a 5km loop around the local estate, not the most inspiring route but with enthusiastic marshalls this helped.  

Provisional Race results available later the same afternoon, probsbly wouldnt do the race again just due to logistics but i would definatley look at another exeter tri event due to the organisation and the helpful nature of all involved.
