Looking for a way to warm up for the Kelowna Apple Triathlon and have some fun on Friday night? Then participate in the Fred Sarkari Aquathon presented by Total Office!
The Aquathon was included for the first time in 2008, and has steadily grown each year. The 2011 event (sponsored by Fred Sarkari and Total Office) consists of a 2.5km run, 1km swim and another 2.5 km run.
The swim portion of the Aquathon uses the same swim course as the triathlon and is popular for many athletes to get a feel of Okanagan Lake.
No formal sign up is required to participate in the Aquathon; just show up for sign up/body marking starting at 5:00pm at Tugboat Beach. The event starts at 5:30pm. The event is free to all registered Kelowna Apple Triathlon Sunday racers. (Then join us for refreshments at the beverage tent!)

A big thank you to Fred Sarkari and the team at Total Office Furnishings for providing the volunteers and helping to organize this year's Aquathon.
Hope to see you there!
