How Hard Can It Be?
Join us on Saturday, September 18, 2010 for this one-of-a-kind Ultra-Paddling race on scenic Okanagan Lake!
The race starts at Kin Beach in Vernon at 7:00 AM (6 AM for early starters) and ends 100 kilometres later on Okanagan Beach in Penticton. In between are four on-shore aid station/check points where paddlers and their support crews will find water, washrooms, and parking.
The race may be long, but the list of rules is short. In a nutshell, crews must arrive at each check point before the designated cut-off times. Crew changes are optional, but may take place only at the check points.
Race registration includes an after-race dinner and a limited-edition micro-fibre towels. Race categories with three or more entries by the early registration deadline (midnight Tuesday, August 31, 2010) are considered official and are eligible for prizes. Unofficial, including "build-your-own" categories are welcome and are eligible for bragging rights and a place in the Length of the Lake Ultra-paddle history books.
We hope to see you at Length for a day of racing you'll never forget!
