Thank you! Will do! Training partner entered me in a "fun?" 4k swim race for July 1 Canada Day, also wants to race me later in August at Whistler in an 8k swim/6k run race, then in Sept. do a Grand Fondo bike ride to Whistler, ...
Great video and I really enjoyed your pre race bike ride video as well. I am racing Victoria this May and wondering what you thought of the road conditions, elevation, and trail run at the end? Is it a true trail run or mostly packed dirt? Thank you in advance.
Thanks for watching! Ride: Road is fine except where the tree roots make it irregular and bumpy. Blooming Hawthorns and other shrubs, smells really nice. Much of it is under large trees, shade is nice. If it rains, will take days to dry, no sun. Swim: 1000m pre-race day timed practice was WINDY. Choppy water (can't see straight) and drifting off-course the whole time. Run: under the shade of the forest canopy, very pleasant, shallow muddy around creek beds, so about 5-10 spots for 10m each. Paved section is less than 100m across some car park, packed dirt/gravel.
Thanks!
You bet! Appreciate your support, too.
Thanks so much!
You're welcome!
Congrats on being able to compete! Keep pushing yourself to new limits. Thanks for sharing.
