Very drizzly this evening, but absolutely gorgeous! Had fun navigating through the village, checking out the local restaurants, walking trails, and some pretty brave mountain bikers showing off their tricks on the slopes. The rain is supposed to clear up by Friday, but rain or shine I am very excited for the festivities! I can definitely spot Ironpeople everywhere ????
Look at our amazing team of volunteers that came out to the Athlete Bag and Packet Stuffing station! #IronManCanada #whistlerunfiltered #givewherewelive #adapttheplayground

The race will start with a two-loop, 2.4-mile mass start swim in the clean shallow waters of Alta Lake at Rainbow Park, which has an average water temperature of 67 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit in late August.
Race start from our spotter’s vantage
The two-loop, 26.2 mile run course follows the meandering Valley Trail past Lost Lake and Green Lake allowing spectators to reinvigorate athletes with a return through Whistler Village at the halfway point of the run. Athletes repeat the same loop a second time before finishing adjacent to Whistler Olympic Plaza.
