    Folks

    Looking for a half ironman distance preferably in late June, July

    I know Galway is June and in August we have Dublin, Athlone and Swinford.

    But does anyone know of any others around these months please?

    THanks

    Got a flyer too about a whole series of races on in one day in July in Lilliput adventure centre outside Mullingar. Have full, half, Olympic, Sprint and lots of different duathlons and aquathons too. No idea of the course or organisation though, just seen the flyer and I can't remember the name of them either!

    I kinda know Denzil who is setting this up afaik he's doing a double ironman. It's not TI affiliated but it is fully insured and supported.

    I'm not sure how good that support will be but it's all for a very good cause. I guess the adventure centre staff will be helping out with marshalling.

    Every variation of triathlon is taking place so I'm sure there'll be an element of organised chaos.

    I'll more than likely end up taking part it's suppsed to be a very nice setting in lilliput adventure centre.

    Got it - so there's no half in Athlone this year, it moved to Galway under the Challange brand.

    Ta.
