The training plan, which is available soon, is designed with the Galway event in mind, and includes course-specific sessions and workouts. The organisers say: “Our Challenge Galway plans will give you confidence in your fitness to not only make it to the finish line but get there knowing you have had your best race performance possible.” 

Challenge Galway is Ireland’s first-ever full-distance Challenge Family triathlon, and will take place over the weekend of 24-26 June 2016.
