What a shambles that baggage organisation was!!!
I finished and saw the chaos so just cycled back up the bike course to moortown where we were staying with the in-laws and went back for my baggage later in the afternoon, although that was a ball ache in itself having to take massive detour, I would have preferred my bag to be left at roundhay park as I could got there in 5 mins from the in-laws.
T1 was far too long, running in then all that way out (whilst carrying a kit bag!) and T2 really needed to be carpeted at the very least.
Don't think I'll do one with a split transition again but they aren't that common, then again if it comes to Leeds next year I may be tempted providing some of the issues have been addressed and the price isn't (even more) ridiculous.
But on the whole I really enjoyed the course and the atmosphere.
I didn't manage to get back in to watch it live so my highlight was seeing Javier Gomez running the run route the night before when I'd set up at T2.
