In summary, bike and run were fast and issue free. Swim caught many off-guard.
In order to prepare for this race, I recommend having a game plan for swimming in very wavy water. Many people, including myself, had never encountered a swim so challenging with wave after wave. It made it very challenging to swim front crawl and many treaded water until turning the first corner (which is pretty exhausting). Don’t underestimate how difficult swimming in this type of environment is or you will be very disappointed.
Bike was a fast course overall with a couple bigger hills, but it was mostly rolling and easy to keep momentum throughout. Run had a couple hills too but nothing absurd. I was very impressed with the high frequency of water stations on the run.
