I am provisionally planning on doing a Standard Tri in July, and I wanted one that I can do without an overnight stay (and I seem to have missed the boat for the Hell of the West anyway.) What about the Wicklow one?
Rob, Hana, Britta - I see you are all planning it. any thoughts / advice? Did anyone do it last year?

Hi Sharon, must have ticked the wrong box, was not even really aware of that event until you mentioned it. I'm thinking of doing the Belssington standard on the 12th of June but just realized that one is only 2 weeks after my Half distance race so certainly will not do a Olymmpic so soon after but maybe the sprint.
Would like to swim in the blessington lakes , but just looked this one up as well, not too many information's about it yet out but Wicklow Tri club has a lot of experience in running events, so yes that one might be a option as well, will certainly keep a eye on that one.I'm the same don't want to travel too much this year so that one would be a good target
