Followed by Bratwurst and Donairs

Sunday March 8th 10AM: Lakeside 5km
2:30PM: Penticton Masters Swim Meet

Current Standards Are:

RUN: Kenenisa Bekele 12.37.35 (@ Hengelo Netherlands 31/5/04)

SWIM: Michael Phelps 1:42.96 (@ Beijing China 12//08)

We have coverage over several Age Groups so there is the possibility of everyone coming out a 'winner' over the course of the weekend, if you end up being a 'loser' then be prepared to assist TBD with his duties throughout the season.

I am hooped,

1st time ever at an event held on snow.

Last 5km race was in 2002.

Last swim 'meet' circa 1985(ish).

Death or Glory awaits.

Can skip all the athletic type events and just drink beer with you all on Sunday??? Skiing, swimming, and running all sound kinda hard!
