Nigel and Trish McCord have zipped around the country in a ton of sportives this year and helped spread the Racing795 gospel! For good measure Nigel has been on the mountain with the bikers also and Trish has thrown in some excellent half marathons in 2014 with 1 hour 48 minutes clocked for the Dublin half marathon in September. Keep flying the flags guys!

Hardman Ironman Triathlon 2014
Posted on September 26, 2014 by Wexford
Peter Coulahan successfully completed the Hardman Ironman Triathlon again this year – they don’t call it the Hardman for nothing! The cycle itself is the very tough Ring of Kerry. Peter’s report
Peter on the far right pictured with Ruairi and Siobhan
“13.38 – 1.14 swim, 6.46 bike, 5.24 run. Suffered like a dog from about 90km on the bike and for the whole run. Hadn’t realised how much the bike would take out of me with no real training. It was physically the hardest thing I’ve ever done. It’s going to take my body a long time to get over it. Came close to dropping out a few times. Glad I stuck it out. Officially retired from all long distance races for at least 5 years now.”

Posted on September 26, 2014 by Wexford
Report by Ross Moorehead
“It was with my usual preparation and diligent research that led me to choose donadea duathlon, thought I’d bring the lads along for the company as well. ( ok so pj picked it and frank told me about it fri night ) . Frank volunteered to drive so we were met with his cheery urine soaked cornflake mood early in clonegal took til Naas for it to lift!!. As we left the weather looked shocking but pj assured us it would clear and he wouldn’t take us to an event with adverse weather conditions and sure enough like franks mood by Naas it too lifted!
