Ironman 70.3 Muskoka 2024 – Race Report
This was my fourth time racing Muskoka 70.3, and nope, it doesn’t really get any easier the more times you do it! Those hills on the bike and run are killer every time. I had to dig deep and fight to keep the run under 2 hours. But it was a fun day nonetheless. I had so many friends participating, so it was really fantastic to see everyone put their all on the course.
It was a pretty hot day but we had some nice overcast as well. For me, it was a very average performance. Perhaps training all winter for a full Ironman in Texas was nice for fitness, but I think I lost some faster firepower, especially on the bike. The swim, bike, and run was all very predictable results. At least it wasn’t worse. That I can be grateful for.

Total Finish Time: 5:55.14 hours.
Not my best, and not my worst.
Congrats to my good friend Steve Upton, who had his first race back in over a year since breaking his collar bone and needing two surgeries. He did well despite finding out he had Covid for the race!
Thank you to all the volunteers and race organizers, and police officers for making this event run smoothly!
