For anyone who is visiting the blog having caught Sligo City Triathlon Club's swim officer Shane O'Doherty on Ocean FM's 'The Final Whistle' show and is interested in giving the sport a try; there will be an information evening in the meeting room of Connoly's bar, Markevicz St., Sligo tomorrow (Mon 11th) at 8pm.
As Shane mentioned on the show the sport is something that is suitable for all ages and levels of ability. Most races hold seperate age group categories (usually in 5yr bands) which are as competitive as any. Sligo is the ideal location for multisport activity with miles of forest tracks and acres of clean beaches.
Sligo City Triathlon Club runs year round training and hosts a number of events -if you ever fancied a crack at completing a triathlon the info. evening tomorrow night would be a good place to start...
