Moving from sprints to standard distance tri's.

I've just completed my first standard distance tri and I have to honest going from sprints to standard was a bit of a shock to the system. I found the swim and bike ok but hit the wall on the run. I was expecting a test but the jump up, I thought, was a much larger gulf than I was expecting. Anyone else find this?
The conditions were difficult with very strong winds but I really struggled on the run. I've been clocking some decent sprint times and got in at 2.45 today so not too bad but I thought I'd be a bit quicker. Does it get easier?
Anyway, be nice to hear anyone else's experiences
Cheers Phil

It was the South Cerney tri and it was really good. The wind was close to gale force which made it difficult but still enjoyable. First one done. Bournemouth and Eton next.
Thanks again for the advice. Will take things much easier on the bike and swim next time
