More than 3 minutes later, the group of Mario Mola and Sergio Baxter arrived at the transition.

In the first kilometers of the race on foot, a group in the lead was formed with Pereira, Le Corre, Bergere and Dévay who went through the first lap with an advantage of 6 seconds over Connix and Schomburg and 12 over a group of triathletes.

On the second lap it was the French treble in the lead with Connix, Bergere and Le Corre going it alone to dispute the victory.

By the third lap Bergere was already the leader leaving alone.
