Nage en eau libre.

merci!!   je vois un entraîneur de triathlon rive nord ce matin, je vais lui en parler!!

Merci tout le monde!!  J'entend beaucoup parlé du lac rond de Ste-Adèle et je vais surement y aller ce vendredi...

Does anybody know of a place, West-Islandish? I'm thinking of the canal in Pointe des Cascades, but I'm not sure if that's allowed, or even a good idea. Every other place around here seems to be heavy on the boat traffic.

En francais:

Y'a t'il un place a l'Ouest de Montreal? Je vais peut-etre essayer la canal au Pointe des Cascades, mais je ne sais sais pas si j'ai le droit, ou si c'est un bonne endroit. Il ya beaucoup des bateaux a tous les autres place dans cette coin.

Merci/Thanks!

I don't know if you are alloows, but this is roughly the swim course for the Verdun tri

The water is shallow enough along the shore that few boats would come there. As well there is a pier. Do a satellite view and you will see it

There is a very slight current

Thanks, I' think I'll check out those two places. Do either of you swim there?

The reason I ask is I just got a new wetsuit, and having never worn one before I'd like to try it someplace before a race.

I have actually swam in both but during races, never outside of a race.

There is also an OWS course at Jean Drapeau Parc at the F1 track.

On Wed night there is a 1 and 2k 'race' there. Race is a big word. It's actually quite laid back. Last week there was a guy with a wetsuit.

I think you can swim there any time.
