Team Geared Up

DUBLIN, IRELAND (Team Geared Up) Looks like they had a very successful Olympic Distance Tri in Kenmare, Co. Kerry for the second running of the Kenmare Tri Club’s Little Bo Peep Triathlon. Some comments from competitors, taken from Kenmare Tri Club race report include:

From Alan Buckley:

Congrats on a great event. This was only my second triathlon and it was thoroughly enjoyable. Great bike course. Real cyclists course because it’s so technical. The run is another matter…… Looking forward to ‘09 already.
Only suggestion, could it be held on a Saturday. Kenmare is such a great town that it would be nice to have a few pints in peace after the race on a Saturday night.

And from Karina:

Thanks to all the organisers for a great event! Loved the course, the scenery helped to distract a little from the hills!!! i agree with Alan’s comment in that it would be great to have it on saturday to enjoy the rest of the weekend in Kenmare. Thanks again, see you in 2009!!!

The winners were:

1. Ellen Viting
