Well organised, well marshalled, thoroughly recommended.

The ability to register on the Saturday would save long queues on Sunday but it was handled so well it wasn't an issue for the competitors, just a suggestion which I know you have offered before.

Small enough to remain friendly and enjoyable

I didn't like the decent back onto exmouth from littleham. Fast, narrow, poor quality road with lots of overtaking of sprint competitors made it scetchy and you had to back off when you really wanted to push on to transition. Other than that good event.

Awesome

Thanks for another great race.
The only thing I would change is to have a choice to register on the Saturday like we did a few years ago.
Also maybe some portaloos up by transition /registration.
The briefing could also be split in two so that the Olympic people get their briefing where they start & the sprinter get it where they start as it all seemed a bit rushed.

Great event which blended well with 3 different races for a wide range of abilities with top drawer organisation.

Great race with good marshalling on the bike and run. A sea swim is always difficult to arrange but with the outgoing tide and a goodly amount of safety paddlers it was a good start to the race. The transition area was well laid out and easy to navigate the entry and exit. It would be favourable to have an opportunity to register the afternoon before because there was long queues with all athletes trying to register, which I think led to a slightly later start. Recommend this well run event for all abilities.

Lovely race great setting friendly and lovely people. Registration needs to be better organised- pre loaded envelopes to collect at registration would be a good idea. Registration closer to car park

I’m a first timer to triathlons and it was brilliant. Thought i might feel intimidated - not at all.

Great atmosphere!

Plenty of space to rack bikes, lots of Marshall’s. Amazing weather and brutal cycle!!!!

Incredible location and amazing weather. Nicely sized event

It was really well organised and great to have the marines assisting on the cycle leg. The cycle leg itself was slightly scary at points as there were a couple of sections in the narrow lanes where I thought it might be closed roads but suddenly a van was coming towards me. No problems but could be tricky for a total beginner. The weather was unbelievable but this was my favourite triathlon to date. Stourhead being similar in nature (Windsor a bit more full on).

Thanks so much for organising!

A great first triathlon in a lovely community

I think the athletes would benefit a lot from more signage along the course, especially during the cycle on sharp bends/ corners/downhill corners- The coverage of trees made some corners difficult to see.

Stickers for bikes and helmets could be better quality-I appreciate this is the first year running the event.

All in all it was a lovely morning, the people were really friendly and volunteers were helpful along the course

Great event on an amazing day !

All for using less plastics but should have been paper or some other recyclable cups available at the end of the event so you could get a drink of water.

Loved it. Really friendly atmosphere and well organised!

Not criticising as we thought it was really well organised, but would be good to have results sooner.

Brillant day and you must have paid extra for the weather.

Just a point that one spectator made was more music in and around the finish would make for little more atmosphere. When the life saving club put there speaker outside it was good but other than that it was Brillant. Well done all
