  • Comments: Cannot say enough about the organization and volunteers and fans. We were fetted from the time we got to Penticton to the time we left. Never wanting for anything. Officially there were 2531 registered, not sure how many actually lined up, but 2185 officially finshed the race in under 17hrs. Forgot to mention that it was very important, in order to combat the sun, to have a strong leather- like tan. Sun block will only help so much, especially when your using sponges or walking through the hoses to cool off. Train hard in the heat of the day between 10-1600. Dont tell Lisa the Lovely as I promised we would not discuss it for awhile, but I intend to be back with Ironcops in 2008. Pain is temporary, glory lasts forever!
