Yesterday was part 2 of the journey — from Reading it was the last 350km by car down to Tenby in Wales.
Thanks to Jan’s driving we made good progress — I did occasionally have to retrieve my luggage from wherever it had migrated to and put it back where it belonged, but otherwise everything was fine…
In Tenby we navigated the genuinely very narrow streets in search of parking, then off to registration and the race briefing.
After that we headed to our accommodation.
The area here is quite beautiful, the weather very British — lots of rain and wind.
Good news from race management: the swim will most likely be moved to North Beach, as the South Beach has too much wave action. North Beach is better sheltered from the waves, situated right next to the harbor in a bay. Water temperature is a pleasant 14°C — wetsuit is mandatory.
