The big rainfall held off enough for everyone to get the race complete, which made for a much more enjoyable first experience for the graduates of our Beginner Triathlon Program and our athletes. We couldn't be more excited to see so many smiling faces from Team Triumph cross the finish line. This race was a great opportunity for all those doing the 70.3 in Tremblant and Muskoka to practice some race strategies and meet up with new friends.
Congratulations to everyone who stepped up to the start line and poured their hearts and smiles into every minute on the course.
We had a big crew out there at the race. Here are their results!
THANKS, A MILLION TO OUR VOLUNTEERS!

I love the accountability and the structure of the Virtual 70.3 Half Ironman training program. I don't think I would have gotten this far without the program. The accountability is huge for me!

My coach Kevin Willis is amazing. His swim practices have been a real game-changer for me. A great communicator regardless of your swim level. The whole club is supportive of everything you do. You don't need to be an Ironman to benefit from their programs. 5 stars all around!!! - Denise Pittuck
I just wanted to thank you and your team (Gabi! Brenda! Maggie! Dawn!) for making last weekend's event so amazing. I had tried to do a try-a-tri on my own last summer, and the experience was night and day.
Even though I didn't make every virtual session, I felt so prepared... I knew where to go for information, and I knew I had a team of people (coaches and our beginner tri group!) who were all there to support me.
It was interesting to watch Eric train on his own (without access to the TrainingPeaks workouts and without the weekly meetings to ask questions and learn more about proper form and race-day stuff). When we left on Sunday, he looked at me and was like "we're DEFINITELY doing the training with Julia if we decide to go for the olympic distance, right?".
So glad to have found this club and looking forward to many more triathlons in the near future!!! Tai Teleso
