For those of you who are anxious to get your race registration calander arranged we have now officially opened up our 2008 on-line registration . It looks like the Subaru Muskoka Chase in June and the Peterborough Half in July are already generating a great deal of interest so please enter early. On-line hotel bookings are already full steam ahead so please don't be disappointed and get your plans started soon.
__________________________________________________________________________________
Here are some of the reasons why people are signing up now...
1- Ironman Qualifying Spots will once again be up for grabs at the Muskoka Chase. We will have 40 Ironman Canada, 20 Ironman Lake Placid and 20 Ironman Florida spots.
2- The Subaru Muskoka Chase will be a great training race for the Muskoka 70.3. Over 1400 Ontario athletes alone have already registered for the Muskoka Ironman and we expect will be lining up at the start line in June as well.
3- Peterborough Half was close to a sell out in 2007. Make it your "A" race in 2008 or as a training day for the Ironman Muskoka 70.3. Either way - you can't go wrong with putting this race into your schedule. Great competition, fun and plenty of racing "history"!
Remember-Hotel accommodation is always tricky at certain races as rooms tend to fill up quickly. We have streamlined the process for you in order to make it "easier'. Each race page will now have a special link that will take you to a list of hotels, with photos and prices all on one page for that particicular race. Since Muskoka, Peterborough and Owen Sound are starting to fill up already here are the links to help get you started on your 2008 planning.
