A huge thanks to all the marshals who turned out today and yesterday to help with our triathlon. It really couldn’t happen without you all. Many thanks to Carlow and Laois County Council, the Carlow Gardai, Laois Hire and The Seven Oaks Hotel for their help and assistance throughout the planning of this event.
Most importantly – thanks to the residents from Graigcullen to Killeshin to Tolerton for their understanding re: road closures.
Thanks to all the participants who were courteous and appreciative throughout for all the marshals efforts. Thanks to Triathlon Ireland and all the referees.

The weather played ball until we the last participant arrived safely back and then the heavens opened. The park cleared and hence we decided to leave the presentations, however a group of winners presently themselves at 4pm, which coincided with the skies clearing so we presented to those present. Apologies to an age group lady we had sent away at 3pm ish.
We will be in contact with all winners by email and will forward any awards due to you. Well done to you all.
