Well organised local event at which everyone, from novices to the experienced, were made to feel welcome.

Could have done with some portaloos at the bike racking area and maybe an extra water station at the turning point of the run.

Enjoyable event, will come back again!

Would be good if waves were done on time or an elite/novice wave, rather than alphabetical order, so you know who you're racing? Personally I don't want a medal for participating, a useful memento would be preferable, like a t shirt or bandana etc.

Great atmosphere and well organised

This was my first Olympic Distance Triathlon and to say I was nervous is an understatement! Lizzie was great at answering my questions I had via email beforehand which helped put my mind at rest.
The pre event info was clear and very useful. On the day the event was well run and very organised.
The swim was tough (for me, not used to the sea!!) Bike was beautiful, lovely scenery and challenging Devon hills. Run was lovely and flat along the prom, great support from locals and other runners alike.

Enjoyed event, bike ride was hard but fun

The bouy on the final bit of the swim was a small bouy and it was impossible to see, so was hard to swim in best direction. It was a smaller bouy and I think it should have been a larger bouy

Passionate Team behind the event, who clearly know how to put on an event. I will look forward to the next LMEvent

It was pretty hot out there on the run. An additional drinks station at the turnaround would have been welcoming but appreciate that cutting down on waste/plastic is important

Very nice location for swim and very nice ondulating route to ride. Very efficient organisation.

Toilets were a bit far from the transition area (public toilet near transition were supposed to be open, but were not).
The results of the triathlon were given the day after. I prefer when the results are given at the arrival of the triathlon, because your can share it with friends and it contributes to happiness of the event!
Thanks to the organisation team, and thanks to those who helped and were very friendly all along the route! Well done!

Excellent

At the turn around pint on the run I feel it needs something more dramatic that a traffic cone!

Great race with lots of hills on the bike ride!

Would be great to have a few kilometre markers along the bike route so know how far you’ve done and got to go

Excellent experience for my first triathlon

More water at the finish line. Perhaps a healthy snack, like a banana, would be nice together with the medal

It was a well organised event

It might be prudent to say during the briefing what the sea conditions are, ie wind direction, tide, currents etc. And drinking water at the turnaround point on the Olympic. A very good event, thank you to all.

Really good triathlon

I will add some fruit or snacks for the end of the race not only water.

New to Tri and first event in Exmouth. Loved it!

Thank you to all the Marshalls and organisers for a really friendly and chilled event. I am new to Tri and this event has given me the confidence to continue. Thank you!

Fab race, thank you!!

Registration wayyyy better than last yr, thank you! And, as someone who really suffers with a cold water shock response, it was great there was more time for pre-swim acclimatisation this year - thanks! Also liked the later start time!
