We are all reeling from the news of two fatalities in Youghal on Sunday, and await the outcome of investigations. We extend our sympathies to the families & friends of the deceased and the emergency services who attended.
Our athletes & supporters were unaware of the emergency, and only found out what happened on completing the event.
Well done to the following for completing the 70.3 distance:
Mike Quinlivan, Christian Jones, Darragh Nicholas, Nigel Mann, Alan Glover, Lisa Horgan (2nd in Age Group), Oliver Foley , Roisin Doran (2nd in Age Group), Elmer Abastillas, Daniel Garry, Eimear Laffan, Lar Cleary, John Gleeson, Edel Foster, Mary Ryan ( 3rd in Age Group) & Helen Hartigan
The relay team ‘Youghal ready for this?’ claimed top prize on the day – well done to Garron Mosley, Nigel Laffan & Damien Crilly.
In the full IM distance we had five finishers:
Brendan Mulhare, Sinead Walsh, Derek Tobin, Michael O’Flaherty & first timer Eduardo Queiroz.
Although its not a time for celebration, we acknowledge the accomplishment of our members.
