OLIVER HALF IRON IS FILLING UP
Registration is now open and if you register before February 15th, you can take advantage of the current registration price.
In its ninth year the Oliver Half Iron has sold out each year as athletes come to Oliver, BC to race in the “Wine Capital of Canada” the first Sunday in June. The race is highlighted by a one loop swim in the spring-few waters of Tucelnuit Lake off Rotary Beach and then a short run around the corner to transition at Tucelnuit Elementary.
The 93Km bike course consists of two loops past Oliver wineries on a scenic journey through some of the nicest riding in Canada. Off the bike, runners head out on a two loop course through quiet residential streets as they make their way out on to the Hike and Bike pathway alongside the Okanagan River and back to the finish at Rotary Beach.
The race also features the “voice of Ironman Canada” Steve King announcing, a post-race BBQ for athletes and their families and is again slated to be a qualifier for Ironman Canada 2012. This is a great race for athletes competing at IMCDA and IMC. Past winners of the event include Tom Evans, Michellie Jones, Linsey Corbin, Scott Neyedli and Jonathon Caron.
