This was a very well-organized event. Registration was seamless, and the other facilities were great. The lake swim was very pleasant. The bike course was fast and easy to navigate, with marshals at all junctions and good signage for the different races using the same roads. The out-and-back run was nice on a closed country lane, a little undulating but nothing too sharp that would sap the momentum from your tiring legs
