It's long but same for everyone. I'm told it was really cramped at the top of the lake when transition was there. I was a little un-nerved by the store your gear by your bike style - I've done so many IM's and Outlaw full all of which have the Bike and Run bags on a hook away from your bike. This, along with my toilet stop is my excuse for rubbish transition times (ignoring my fumbling and bumbling errors and the incorrect decision to add a layer/gloves as it started raining). |

I didn't notice it being cramped at the lake end but then it was half empty when I got there haha are they keeping the TT style swim start? |

I beleive so, certainly this year. It works well, I think the days of 2,000 people bashing the crap out of each other in the first 5 minutes are over (thank god!). And also allows people to do their show off dives from the jetty.... |

I prefer the TT starts. Was never a fan of the “Biff” and I’m a strong and confident swimmer that used to play waterpolo! Lord knows how others managed.

whereas I prefer the mass start as I can start at the side and know no one will swim behind and over me!
