Hello from Mont Tremblant, Quebec, Canada!
I’ve been here less than 24 hours, but I can already say the venue is everything it’s advertised to be! Gorgeous, adorable, friendly, and the community has gone ALL OUT for Ironman.
This morning I did a quick check of the swim course.
The water was crisp and clear, and I thought the temperature was just about perfect. As an added bonus, there’s an espresso boat about 500 meters off shore!
In honor of my being in Mont Tremblant and doing a little open water swimming, I thought this week’s TYR Swim Set of the Week should be an open water set! Just because you’re not in a pool, doesn’t mean you can’t do intervals! Coach Matthew came up with this set and I thought it was a good one. I set the timer on my watch to beep every two minutes so I knew when to start the next interval.
Give it a try and then go reward yourself with some espresso!
