Mark Sheridan
Irish
I've been looking at friends doing this event for the last couple of years now and I've decided that this is going to be the year I will do it. I'm currently serving overseas with the Irish defence forces so there's a lot of warm weather training happening. I don't think it will be like this on the day of The Race though.
I've done both duathalon's and triathlons inside and out of the defence forces but this will be my first long endurance event.
