Caroline Kearney 2008 Race Report


Last weekend saw our Club travel to Mullingar for the Caroline Kearney Olympic Distance Triathlon. Midland Triathlon Club hosted this excellently run event. We had 12 participants for our first official race as Athlone Triathlon Club. For a lot of our members this was their first time to compete in an Olympic distance. Congratulations go out to everyone involved, and especially to Mick Macken , who won the Club’s first honours by winning his age group and coming 26th overall.
