Ironman Canada 2008

Last sunday, Peach-city held the 26th Ironman Canada, with thousands of volunteers. It was an incredible event!
The start was at 7am at Okanagan lake with a 3.5km swim, followed by a 180km bike run to Oliver over two mountain passes and back to Penticton. After the bike track, the athletes went on the marathon running course 42.2km to Okanagan Falls and back to Penticton. Some of the runners got wet a second time, due to heavy rainfalls in the evening. The event lasted until midnight. All the remaining runners where then collected by the "Bäsewage".
