Eastside Road was to be expanded with a "shoulder" this past summer.  However, lack of funding appears to have put the project on hold, again.  Brad had spoken with the Ministry of Highways project manager during the summer, with the understanding that the project was to take place during 2011.  There are new signs on Eastside Road, as of January 2012, stating that a widening of the part of the road will be taking place.

Check the Photo Gallery, as new photos have been added for the Beverage Mile.  40 people attended the AGM at Theo's, for a great social affair.  Draw prizes were provided by Ironman Canada.  Appetizers were provided by the club for all, and the food was typically Theo's, fantastic!  New club member Charlie Llewellyn is the winner of the free entry to the 2012 Investors Group Peach Classic Triathlon.

Check out the current issue of Triathlon Magazine Canada.  2 of our club members are highlighted!!  Jeff Symonds is on the cover, in an awesome photo as he crosses the finish line in 3rd in the World for the 70.3 World Championships, and Tracey Mcquair has an article written by Jenny Ayers on Tracey's win at Ultraman UK.  There is also a story in the Triathlete magazine on Jeff Symonds.  Jeff will be giving a seminar in early 2012, on his "Road to Vegas".

Congratulation to Jeff Symonds, a Penticton Triathlon club member, who won the 2011 Great White North Half Ironman, and was 3rd in the Boise 70.3.  Jeff Symonds is one of the Penticton Triathlon Club's elite athletes, and likes to write stories about some of his races.  The club has asked Jeff to write stories for the club, and has a link to Jeff's Blog.  Check out his blog from the "Links" tab on the front page, link #6.  The club has encouraged him to get back to writing, as his story on the Kelowna Ski2Sea was very entertaining.  Check out his blog!

Results are up!  Photos are slowly being uploaded on to the website.  Keep checking to see if you are in the photos!  Thanks again to our sponsors, the Barley Mill Pub, Slipstream Athletics (Bike course), Ironman Canada Race Society (Run course), Lake Breeze Winery, Cob's Bread, Bike Barn, Peach City Runners, Swagman Racks, Cramer Crew (Remax), and Parkway Chevron.
