The race will once again be held over the "sprint distance" and consisted of swimming, road bicycling, and road running.[1]
Pre-race
Triathlon is traditionally a strong event in the Commonwealth, and the startlist reflected that strength. Olympic silver and bronze medalists Alex Yee of England and Hayden Wilde of New Zealand enter as pre-race favourites, while reigning Commonwealth Games champion Henri Schoeman from South Africa, and 2018 silver medalist Jacob Birtwhistle of Australia also return.
