Lough Ramor Triathlon – Dáire McNulty

IRONMAN Copenhagen 2019 – Jo Lynch
Ironman Copenhagen – the one with the ferret! I wasn’t supposed to do Copenhagen. I had actually signed up for Cork when it was first announced. However after getting drenched at Barcelona last year I questioned whether I really wanted to risk an Ironman in Ireland! I pulled the plug on Ireland a few months […]

Before I get into the specifics of the race preparation,there is a couple of things I found invaluable over the last few […]
Joanna Butler…..her journey to Kona

With perfect weather conditions and the promise of ice cream at the finish line, our Pulsers […]
IRONMAN Cork – a race for the ages
What a day. What a race. When it was first mooted that a full IRONMAN would be coming to Ireland, the rumours were that they wanted to make it hard. They wanted another Wales. They wanted Youghal to embrace the race in the way Tenby had. I don’t think anyone could have predicted that the […]
