The 10th King of Greystones Triathlon was a great success! With over 140 participants the event was well supported and a hard fought contest. In the end, Neil O’Grady and Rebecca Harris were named King and Queen of Greystones respectively. Congratulations to all who took part.

Great thanks are due to all of those who gave up their time on Saturday to ensure that everything would go according to plan, we appreciate your help and kindness.

We would also like to acknowledge the work and dedication of the organising committee. An event like the Triathlon requires a huge amount of planning and preparation. Many people commented on the fun atmosphere and the welcome extended by the locals in Greystones.

We hope that you enjoyed the day.

This year the 10th King of Greystones Triathlon takes place on Saturday August 6th. At present quite a few individuals and teams have registered to take part. If you have not registered then there is still time to do so. You can contact the organisers here.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary there will be spot prizes for competitors and as well as prizes for the male and female winners.

The Sam McMahon Trust will receive part of the funds rasied and we are very grateful to the committee for thinking of us. We would like to thank all of those who volunteer before and during the event and to those who are taking part we wish you well.

We will be keeping an eye out for Cormac McKenna, Larry Lawless and Nat Duffy. They can talk the talk but where will they finish…..

Best wishes and good luck to all of the competitors taking part in the King of Greystones Triathlon tomorrow. We hope that the weeks and months of training pay off! It promises to be a great event. Thanks to all of those people who have volunteered their time to ensure that everything goes smoothly.
