Good morning everyone! Have you ever heard of The Half Corked Marathon?? If not, get this … it’s an 18km route through sun-soaked vineyards in Oliver Osoyoos complete with wine (and food) tasting along the way … costumes are HIGHLY encouraged AND there’s a party at the finish line. Helloooooo!! Is this not what dreams are made of?! Gah!!
I’ve had my eyes on this event for a few years now but my schedule hasn’t allowed me to make it (not to mention it sells out soooo freakin fast!!) …Welp. This year is a different story!! That’s right, this year myself, Tori, Shay, and Mindy are going and we’re SO EXCITED … we’ve literally been training for this since we were legal drinking ages … lol … oh, wait … did you think I was talking about training for an 18km marathon? Nah. That’s WAY too much work. LOL.
Anywho, the reason WHY I’m telling you about this is because we know JUST how much fun we’re going to have so we wanted to make sure that someone else (plus their BFF) got to experience this too. Soooo, we want to give ONE lucky wine lover and their best friend, mother, father, hubby, etc. the chance to join in on the Half Corked Marathon and meet me and the girls for a glass of vino afterward!!

This would be so much fun
Oh, this would be so fun! Hubby and I stayed at Nk’Mip Resort for our honeymoon almost 6 years ago and would love to go back. I’ve always wanted to meet you. And we love wine.
Sounds good I’m in!!!!
OMG I’ve been dying to do this. My Bestfriend and I would be a great addition to the team.
I first went to Kelowna last summer to visit friends from Manitoba who had just moved there and fell in love! I’d love to use some Air Miles and do some running, eating, drinking wine, etc. This event looks amazing and meeting Jillian would be awesome – huge fan!
Ooohhhh I have been trying to get into this marathon but no luck yet on the lottery! I am trained on the 18 km part and could really use the wine part!!!! I can definately swing getting there!
This looks amazing! I just ran my first half marathon in April after having my babe 8 months ago so this is definitely something I’m so interested in!!! And I would love to meet Jill!!!
This is amazing! a broken foot won’t stop me!!!
OH MY GOODNESSS – would LOVE to win this!!! Wine, good food and running – not to mention WINE, lol. This would be the best getaway for my husband and I! We would love to come up! Already brainstorming all the funny couple costume ideas for this… Adam & Eve, Superman & Wonder Woman, Eggs & Bacon. The possibilities are endless!
Have been trying for years to get in! Would be amazing!!!!
