Awesome job on the swim!




If you go to the smaller races in Vulcan or Turner Valley you can likely get away with minimal training and you won't find the race environment or courses intimidating. Once you get to the Olympic distance and beyond more training will be required. At the above races you will see every level and will have people on all types of bikes and swimming in all sorts of manners. Both pools are warm which is half the battle in the water!
