The annual Half Corked Marathon weaves racers through the beautiful vineyards of the Oliver Osoyoos Wine Country, sampling wines and fine food along the route.
Created by the Oliver Osoyoos Winery Association, and inspired by the legendary Medoc Marathon in Bordeaux, the Half Corked Marathon is a celebration of the Golden Mile and Black Sage Road benches connecting the communities of Oliver and Osoyoos.
The race is growing in popularity with the 4,500 lottery entries for the 1,100 spots available for the 2017 marathon.
