This was my first ever triathlon and whilst I was nervous, Amanda and her team communicated everything excellently to put us at ease before we arrived. Everything was well sign posted on the day and the marshalls were really friendly and helpful. It was my first, but it won't be my last. I will look out for more SBR events. They're great! 

My last Triathlon was 10 years ago and I have long wanted to do an Aquathlon so was delighted you were able to offer this event. Everyone was super friendly and helpful, great marshals and this rubs off on the competitors, which ends up with a super day.  Lovely warm water, not wetsuit needed, which makes for a good transition! 

Not sure how long you have been offering the Aquathlon, but hope that it catches on, be good to have more competitors.

After a long time without any events. My first event back was always going to be interesting to see how the new way of working would be. Amanda and her team at SBR had this pretty much nailed. A fast and covid registration process, lots of sanitisers, and good protocol on distancing. My only feedback would have been getting the faster swimmers in front first and having a better way to organise that. Not that it affected anyone's swim as there was so much space it meant no washing machine start and a calm swim. The marshalls were great .. plenty of guidance and encouragement. There were enough people around as well to make the race have an atmosphere. The venue is ideal for a smaller event and a great way for lots of people to have their first taste of triathlon and for those more experienced to get a good training race in. The swim was lovely... nice mostly clear water. Bike course is mostly flat and fast but with some good bends to make it technical in places. Run is through the residnetial area where some residenst are providing support. A great event one that has become a regular for our Tri Club members. 

This was my first triathlon in 2018 and I keep coming back. It's as friendly as ever despite the covid regulations. Felt safe and looked after throughout, love the bike course especially, marshalls were fab as always and it's great to see the locals out to support too. Great team.
