The race started with a 400m hard swim, onto the bike for a 15-mile course which weaved through the village of Burton and climbs up one of the steepest hills in Lincoln.

The bike leg then travels through the village of Saxilby and back to David Lloyd for the second transition and out for the 3.1-mile run along the canal path.
