Swimrun Austin 2023 race report

Image
The race formerly known as Ödyssey Swimrun Austin is now becoming  ÖTILLÖ Swimrun Austin , and this was the first race in the new partnership formed between Ödyssey and  ÖTILLÖ ! Super excited for this development and what it means for the future of swimrun, especially here in the US. Extra super excited to potentially have three new US swimruns on the future docket, and very impatient to find out where they might be. This was our last swimrun of the 2023 swimrun season, and we had a great group of friends and  Envol teammates descend upon Pace Bend Park to do the race. But first.. I guess I would be remiss if I didn't address the Swimrun Orcas Island issue.  Trista and I were registered for Orcas Island. We flew to Seattle. We flew from Seattle to Orcas Island in a cute little island hopper. We did the Envol clinic the day before the race. Why no race report, then, you ask? After the clinic, Matt hopped on the bike he'd rented for the weekend, which he would use to follow us
