As a first time triathlon attendee I had every email and Facebook post answered very quickly leading up to the event. On the day Mark was great, every marshal and other competitors were amazing so encouraging and made me feel at ease - everyone was so great! Fantastic event, brilliantly organised, fab group of people!
Only suggestion is maybe introduce some sort of forum, question time prior for newbies who haven’t a clue to save you answering the questions individually ☺️

Brilliant encouragement and support from the many many marshalls - thank you! Whole event was extremely well organised - would definitely recommend to others.

I thoroughly enjoyed the day. The organisation was brilliant . I seamlessly budged up the order when I got my swim times wrong and thankfully didn't hold anyone up. Bike was tough for me. Loved being beaten by the elite and kids on the junior parkrun. But my biggest hat must come off to all the amazing marshals throughout the entire course. Absolutely brilliant, thank you all!

As a newbie I was well supported by all the marshals

I just wanted to comment on how absolutely fantastic your marshals were. Really proactive, supportive and cheerful. Thank you!

The best tri I've done yet. Great day, thanks.

I am not an experienced triathlete and I found I was provided with plenty of information ahead of the event and on the day. The transitions marshalls were very helpful in explaining how to setup my bike and how the route worked. All the marshalls were friendly and supportive. It was a cold, damp day so I want to say a massive thank you to them all for sticking it out with a smile!

With less than perfect conditions, Mark nailed a top notch briefing with blips on the bike course clearly explained. Fantastic marshals. Every detail, spot on right down to the quality of stickers and numbers. Highly recommended.

Only constructive feedback I can think of would be to have an idiots guide or a contact for newbies. However as a newbie I was well looked after and all questions answered :) thank you!

Excellent event. Organised really well with plenty of Marshalls to point you in the right direction. Friendly and calm atmosphere highly recommend this event

I was so impressed with the whole event, especially the main man Mark who was reassuring, supportive and had a great sense of humour. That’s the best race briefing I’ve ever been to! All the Marshalls were brilliant and even though I was officially the SEN participant on the day (!) it didn’t matter. I felt valued and included as a competitor. I have never completed a Tri with you guys before but am definitely tempted to come back next year but with a bit more training under my belt.
Well done and thank you!

Such a Scenically beautiful Sprint, triathlon glad I drove the bike course beforehand to recce the route and also to take in the stunning countryside and views. The support staff were just a stunning with all their encouragement along with must what must have been many cold feet and hands so a big thank you to all involved. Can’t wait for the next Dorchester sprint tri.

well attended event, super well marshalled, well organised, swim facilities great, cracking bike course… Thanks Bustinskins

Really impressed how the swim was managed. Loads of marshals across while bike and run. Thanks team Bustinskin you smashed it. Xx

Very good event and well organised. Swim started abit later than planned but to be expected when rolling swim times and variety of swim capabilities, bike course was good and technical, well marshalled just like the run, also bling medal
