Cork. Our club was formed in 2016 when a few avid runners, cyclists and swimmers who often found themselves bumping into each other at Tri events decided it was time to train together; consequently Mallow Tri Club was born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve successfully run a Duathlon around Mallow town in our first month and 1 year later we ran an Aquathlon Series set in the scenic Ballyhass lakes.\u00a0\u00a0 In 2020, 2021 2022 , 2023 2024 and 2025 we organised and successfully ran our first sprint distance\u00a0 triathlon, which has been part of Triathlon Ireland National Series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have a steady membership each year since we formed, and each year we recruit a few new members. At present we have over 100 members. Our training schedule is strengthening year on year.<br>We\u2019re always looking for leaders who have the courage to put themselves out there to help others in the sport. We\u2019re all volunteers, we all started out through a love of fitness and activity and we\u2019re all in this together to make our club a welcoming club for all levels.<br>\u201cIf you set a goal for yourself and are able to achieve it, you have won your race. Your goal can be to come first, to improve your performance, or just to finish the race; it\u2019s up to you\u201d (Dave Scott, 6 time ironman world champion).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I join Mallow Tri Club?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You must first be a member of Triathlon Ireland for insurance purposes.
