European Medallist to host Triathlon information evening
by Sean Mulhall
Wicklow Triathlon Club is holding an open evening in Shoreline Leisure Centre, Greystones on Thursday 16th of February at 8pm.
The sport of triathlon has seen a boom in recent years with Triathlon Ireland recording a 25% increase in membership of the sports governing body from the same time last year. To cater for the demand local club Wicklow Tri will be holding an open evening for anyone looking to find out a little more about the sport and the club.
55-59 years 2011 National Sprint Distance Champion and 2010 European Championship runner up Jim Corbett will lead the presentation spelling out the health benefits of triathlon and the social aspect of the club. Jim along with a number of other experience club members will also provide advice and tips on how to train for your first triathlon or how to improve to the next level.
Last year’s open evening was a big success and Wicklow Triathlon Club hope to see another big turn out this year. The evening is suitable for all levels from those who have never even heard of a triathlon up to the seasoned pros.
