Subject: RE: Ironman Canada: Official Threadyaqui - 2009-08-10 1:53 PM BT get together/swim: Anybody up for a Thursday morning swim starting at the Sicamous and swimming to the Peach and back. I'm planning on getting there between 7:15 and 7:30 The Sicamous is a sternwheeler/museum on the far west end of Lakeshore Dr. It's less hectic and there's more parking there then the east end where the race transition and village area are. The "Peach" is a concession stand that looks like a giant Peach. It's located where the race day swim start is on the east side of the lake. Thursday afternoon I'm going to have my gf drop me off at Yellow Lake and I'm going to ride back to town. Most of this is downhill, so it's a pretty easy ride. There's a lot of speed to be made up on this descent race day, so it's good to familiarize yourself with it. I don't have a set time for the ride other then after lunch. I don't mind the company if anyone wants to join me. scott I hope to make the swim...anyone else? I think James said he'd try and make it as well. I have swims Tuesday and Wed. Anyone going to be up there then and want to swim? I'd love to meet many of you before the race. PM me if you want to exchange cell phone numbers. It might be fun to try and meet up for the athlete dinner of Friday night. |
