Master  1681     Rural Ontario |  Subject: Ironman Mont Tremblant 2012So the local media is reporting that the WTC will officially announce the Ironman Mont Tremblant to take place in August 2012. Its a wonderful location for a full IM race. I'm looking forward to hearing more details. Mont Tremblant is 1.5hrs north of Montreal or 3.5hrs north of Burlington, VT.

Champion 9407  Montague Gold Mines, Nova Scotia | Subject: RE: Ironman Mont Tremblant 2012 I saw rumours of this tweeted a couple of months ago; IMO and think it would be great to add a Canadian eastern race and the venue would be great. I might even consider registering if it happens. Shane |

Elite 3090 Spokane, WA | Subject: RE: Ironman Mont Tremblant 2012 Interesting. I wonder if they will rename Ironman Canada to Ironman Penticton. I'm doing IM Canada in 2012, and for some reason I'd be disappointed if they change the name. |

Extreme Veteran 378 Acton, Ontario | Subject: RE: Ironman Mont Tremblant 2012 Well this just throws a loop into my long term plans... I am going to have a hard time resisting registration for this event once it is announced and opens up. Really looking forward to it. Without question I will either volunteer, or race in 2012 if all goes as planned for the Mont Tremblant. |

It shouldnt be a problem, Quebec is a different country snap! that and IMC is still owned by a Canadian. |

| Member 36 Glen allen, VA | Subject: RE: Ironman Mont Tremblant 2012 http://monttremblant.ironmancloud.com/ Nothing says official like a website. I guess the previous posters didn't ruin the whole thing. As a Canadian living in the US, it sounds like a great first (and probably last) foray into Ironman racing. |

I guess the previous posters didn't ruin the whole thing. As a Canadian living in the US, it sounds like a great first (and probably last) foray into Ironman racing. A section with a 12 percent grade on the bike and 13 percent on the run. Is that the best they could do? |

| Veteran 1900 Southampton, Ontario | Subject: RE: Ironman Mont Tremblant 2012 Tremblant is close enough that I would consider doing it but $675 for the entry fee? They better be serving poutine at the water stations! Seriously is that inline? my 1/2IM was $200 and I thought that was bad
I think I will at least "do" a triathlon before I pull out my wallet for that one. |

| Extreme Veteran 610 San Francisco CA | Subject: RE: Ironman Mont Tremblant 2012 Really excited about this! It is only 1.5 hours from my in-laws house and the area is absolutely beautiful that time of year. If IMAZ (my first IM) goes well this year I may have to consider this for 2013 or 2014.

| Extreme Veteran 422 Somewhere, British Columbia | Subject: RE: Ironman Mont Tremblant 2012 I just think the tentative date are not very good as you will have to decide between IMC and this one if you want to do an Ironman in Canada. On a second though, it's not very easy anyway because of the typical weather in Canada... Well... It is good to see a second one in Canada |

| Master 1681 Rural Ontario | Subject: RE: Ironman Mont Tremblant 2012 Looks like its a GO! Here are the proposed courses. The bike will be challenging and the run looks full of rolling ups and downs. At least the swim looks flat.

The bike will be challenging and the run looks full of rolling ups and downs. At least the swim looks flat. Snerk. All kidding aside - it looks spectacular. Maybe a volunteer position this year to get the lay of the land...Anyone familiar with the bike route? Is it as painful as it looks? |
