Racers meet Saturday January 24^th upstairs at the Aulde Dubliner between 5pm and 7pm to sign-in. Participants then make their way to the Rideau Canal for the first leg of the race.

First leg: Skating a pre-determined length of the Canal. Racers will obtain the all-important "drink ticket" from a Carleton Cup official at the half way mark to prove they skated the required distance.

Second leg: Running/walking from the Canal, back to the Aulde Dubliner (62 Williams Street) in the Byward Market.  Racers hand in their drink ticket in exchange for a beverage of their choice (Most people choose the official beer, Labatt 50) The race is over as soon as the wet hits their gullet!
