    Announced earlier today. From the Galway Advertiser Facebook page:
    A major international sporting event has just been announced for the City of the Tribes as ‘CHALLENGE Galway’ - the first ever long distance CHALLENGE triathlon arrives in Ireland. Around 2,200 national and international athletes will descend on Galway from 24th – 26th June 2016, promising an enormous economic injection for the entire country.

    Course details on their website:

    It's very ambitious, apparently they're having smaller events on Saturday for kids and people who don't think they'd survive a full tri distance and then the main event is on Sunday.

    I did laugh at it being called "Challenge Galway" when it veers off into Clare for most of the cycling portion. Sorry, Clare.
