We are booked in from 7pm but said it would probably be from 6.30pm on and folks arriving at different times!
Also broke the bike in the crap weather yesterday so swim and bike might be turning into swim only!
Sorry for last minute change.
Text me if you need directions or anything
Day 1 – Sunday 30th April
Meet at HQ from 7.30am, breakfast rolls for these who want them and plenty of faffing time for those that don’t, chance to sort out small bag to be transferred to T1 and set up T2 area. Pre-race briefing to take place by 8.30 then ride down to the swim / start which is 3 miles away
Swimming pool is booked for our private use from 9-10am
Then T1 will be as close to the pool as we can make it, I am just negotiating the use of an area for those wanting to go straight out but changing rooms can be used for those that want to do their hair/put make up on ;p
Ride to commence – route is still being finalised and will be tested out, plan is for it to be route signed, have options to allow for shorter distances and a fully challenging half route (once firmed up more details on profile and route files will be made available)
T2 will be back at race HQ, the run route is currently multi lapped but no further than 2 miles to the feed station, slightly undulating but plenty of support each time you pass the feed station
Finish at HQ, shower change and enjoy the evening with a trip to the pub
So re the feedstations there will be a small selection of items available and those extras that folks bring but as per the usual tradition of the DIY we will help by passing and exchanging but unfortunately this will not be like a normal fully supported race (having said that we will probably have lots of goodies, banter and a few spares between us in the event of a minor mechanical)
