Dussault kept her focus in the intense high altitude sunlight by racing in the Bliz Pace sunglasses with blue multicoated smoke tinted lenses. Dussault stated, “The Pace are so comfortable I almost forget I have them on, and the blue lens was perfect for all the events. This event with its 4 different disciplines kept me thinking of my 4 kids and super supportive husband. Balance, determination and focus were necessary as it is every day at home.”
