Triathlon Ireland Calendar 2014

Post by johnd »

Next year's racing calendar was released yesterday https://www.triathlonireland-newserver. ... races.html

Big cut back in the number of National Series races
Disappointing to see that Beast of the East is no longer NS
Also sad to see that Wexford tri club's Pikeman race is no longer happening

Details about the National Series and National Championships here: http://www.triathlonireland.com/index.p ... 7&nid=1525

There is mention of a new regional series of races but no details as of yet

Fun times :)

Xterra comes to Ireland in July - a race for MTB's who can swim / triathletes who can ride mountain bikes ;)

Yea disappointing reduction in races, both geographically and time wise. No sprints after July, no Valentia, no Mourne, No Beast.... I spoke with a few guys who are saying TI are introducing more regional races for the elites, so looks like more competitive NS races and more elitist system, which have arguments on both sides, but not my preference. At the moment my races would be 3D, Athy, Hell, Two Provinces, King, DCT, but I may give them all a miss and try something else... In that humour at the moment :?
