Course Conditions
This was the first time for a Pro race on this course. Sam Laidlow won the race posting the best splits in all three legs, therefore all his times are course records. The swim and run were relatively quick, but the bike was quite slow (adjustment of -20:26), comparable to St. George, Lanzarote and Wales. The overall adjustment was -12:06, about four minutes slower than IM UK which was a Pro race up to 2021.
