After a bit of musical 'chairs' we finally get a proper space in the aire and get the awning half out. we set out as the day is heating up on the triathlon cycle route. Up col Leschaux, then down a little before a few little energy sapping climbs, then a fast descent back to the lake. Warmed up we have a coffee to perk us up and head off to the lake. Still to hot for wetsuits so we headout towards the bouys swimming through hot and cold patches. We are slightly concerned about getting cramp but stay together just incase. Lovely swim. The aire is hot so we take ourselves to the lakeside and i watch to swimmers have a close encounter with a speed boat...thankfully they are fine and we relax.
highs - swim, bike descents, other triathletes in aire from Italy
lows - surprising and long cycle route for sunday
note - may have managed to relax this afternoon

I LOVE Annecy. We used to go down to the lake for a swim and beach a couple of times in the summer break. It was fair drive, but totally worth it. The water is gorgeous - or that's at least how I remember it. Great ice cream/sorbet shops/stalls too. Car was always too hot to sit in for the first part of the journey back to Tignes! Hope the Triathlon goes well. Oh and yeah - that bike path is lethal to cross! LOL!
