How the day is laid out
The swim is held in a bay. An average of 27 °C is warm. Wetsuit use is commonly restricted above this point, and the swim becomes a question of heat more than of cold.
The bike leg is labelled flat.
The run is labelled hilly.
A flat bike ahead of a hilly run leaves the climbing for last, when the legs have already done most of the day's work.
Expect air between 24 °C and 28 °C on race day. A spread of 4 degrees across the day matters as much as the peak, because what you wear at the swim exit is rarely what you want at the far end of the bike.
