It’s an Olympic year and high-altitude training helps many
athletes prep for a big race. In addition, cold water plunges/swims are a trend
that continues to grow and with the lake full it makes swimming more accessible
this summer at South Shore’s stunning beaches. Here’s recommendations for safe
open water swimming: stick to the shoreline, wear bright colors, know one’s
ability/limitations, swim with a friend or a kayak/SUP, and plan for a place to
warm up afterward. For competitions, various triathlons, marathons and bike
rides this season.
The Lake Tahoe Triathlon includes sprint, half, and Olympic
distances as well as a duathlon (run/bike/run) and aquabike (swim/bike) all
starting from Ed’ZBerg Sugar Pine State Park, Aug. 24-25
