Welcome to Portlaoise Try-athlon

Portlaoise Try-athlon is the newest addition to the Triathlon Ireland calendar, and will be the first opportunity to race triathlon in Ireland in 2009.

More than that, we have called the event a 'try-athlon' because we especially want entrants to make this their first triathlon. New year is a time for resolutions - make yours triathlon and enter the race. Be it a once-in-a-lifetime achievement, or the start of a longer relationship with the sport, we want to see you on 11 April.

Please click through this site and find much more information about the race, the organisers, the local club in Laois (Trilogy Triathlon), the course, beginners information and much more.

We will be putting regular updates on this page between now and April 11. So get training and rmember to check back here often.
