How the day is laid out

The swim is held in a lake. An average of 23 °C is close to the threshold where wetsuit rules start to tighten. Plan for both answers and check the call on race morning.

The bike leg is labelled flat.

The run is labelled rolling.

A flat bike ahead of a rolling run is a common pairing. It rewards a steady bike and makes a bike ridden too hard show up on the run.

Expect air between 20 °C and 30 °C on race day. A spread of 10 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.
