The swim: Lengths of the pool, get there in plenty of time and watch the swim unfold in front of you.
The bike: Undulating but forgiving course with a suburban start until you are out on the open roads of Wilmslow and the surrounding towns. Couple of cheeky climbs to keep you honest but nothing that would overly worry novice / experienced athlete alike. Back to the Leisure centre for the Run.
The run: After a quick change you are on the run, nothing too steep, nothing too flat, mixed terrain, but most trainers will be suited to this environment. Follow the signs and obey the marshals' instructions and you will be through the finish to collect your medal.
