How the day is laid out

The swim is held in a lake, from a mass start. An average of 18 °C sits in the range where a wetsuit is both allowed and worth wearing for nearly everyone.

The bike leg is labelled rolling. No elevation figure is published for it on the organiser's pages, so this site holds none.

The run is labelled flat.

A rolling bike and a flat run, as the organiser labels them. These are words, and no elevation figure is published to put a number on them.

Expect air between 6 °C and 19 °C, the range the organiser publishes for 6 March 2027. A spread of 13 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.
