I've met some lovely people at each swim and do appreciate all the efforts it takes to put each these days. <br />A couple of points I'd like to make (althought I am sure they've already been made by the regulars) - I am suprised with lack of communications on event day by the race starters.

I found it tough. On the buoys, I barely saw them! Yellow is a hard colour to see in the glare of a yellow sun.
