Regular  847    Akron |  Subject: IM MUSKOKAHas anyone done the 70.3 in Muskoka? My understanding is that the full is a double loop of the full, but not sure. I'm just curious how the full would compare to Lake Placid. And Go.... |

Veteran 378 The Cold North | Subject: RE: IM MUSKOKA The half bike course is a lollipop shape, and the full will be the stick and a double loop with a small out-and-back on one of the loops. I find that course to be much harder than LP. I do better at the gradual climbs in LP rather than the steeper climbs of Muskoka. I was 27 minutes longer on the bike at Muskoka than I was for 1 loop of Placid (although keep in mind the Muskoka half is 4 km long). |

I'm not sure I understand ur 4km comment. |

I was looking at Muskoka as an IM for next year and heard some locals say the bike will be a beast. I opted for IM Boulder. |
