World Championships in Canada

I’m currently in Canada for the 6th FINA Open Water Swimming World Championships.

I’ll be competing in Lac Saint-Jean near Roberval, which is in Quebec. I’ve never been to Canada before and it really does live up to it reputation – it is absolutely stunning.

Unfortunately I won’t be able to see too much of it though as I will be focusing on my races. The Women’s 10k is on Saturday July 17th with the Women’s 5k on Tuesday 20th.

Its always really difficult to predict how I’m going to perform in the races as there are so many variables in open water swimming, not to mention the fact that as it’s the World Championships so the field is really strong. But I am feeling confident, so let see what happens!
