[IOCA] Fall Lake George: Turtle Island Triathalon

[Gregory Wallace]

Hello IOCAns, one and all!
This year, MITOC, in conjunction with the ROC and IOCA will be 
organizing the
second annual Turtle Island Triathalon at Fall Lake George.  Everyone 
who
participated last year had a blast and we hope to draw more 
individuals/teams
into the competition.  This year the traditional biking leg will be 
replaced by
a canoe/kayak leg.

The course will be:
Swim from the the BBQ area around the southern tip of the island and 
back up
into the bay where the main loading dock is.
Canoe/kayak one lap around the entire island.  Portages are strictly
prohibited.
Run two laps around the entire island.  We will have plenty of orange 
tape to
mark off the entire course this year.

Anyone can participate as an individual or as a part of a team.  We 
will have
fabulous prizes (cookies) for the winners in each category.  Signups 
for the
triathalon will start Saturday morning at 9am at the island checkin 
point and
the race will start at noon.

A note for teams:  The team race will work relay style---you must have 
a baton
to pass off at the end of each stage.  Keep in mind that you'll have to 
swim
with whatever it is you choose as a baton.

Good luck and I'll see you this weekend.

Greg
