Participants were sent off in waves, and we were in the first wave and eager to get going. We wanted to have a lot of fun, take pictures along the way, and sample some wine. The organizers had arranged bottle drops at each of the vineyards for your purchases, and they delivered them to the final vineyard for you to pick up after dinner. Oh yeah that was another thing, an amazing buffet dinner was included!
We started with a wine tasting, followed by a glass enjoyed on a patio in the sun. Because don't you always have a glass of wine before a run? |
First winery, Cherry Point. Not necessarily my favourite valley wines, but they do have a gorgeous property. |
Second winery, Rocky Creek. They have a really nice sparkling! |
Third winery, Venturi Schulze. They are a really small, family- owned winery that makes some absolutely amazing wines. |
Two guys running in suits, because drinking wine is classy of course! |
The run finished at Blue Grouse, with a final tasting and dinner! |
Relaxing in the vineyard. |
One of the banquet tables, right next to the vines. |

We had so much fun, and already can't wait for next year! This is a must-do event!
