What an achievement for Lorraine O'Neill. Did herself, her family, her club Proud 🏆 (and hopefully her coach 😅) performing on the world stage in Nice at the 70.3 World championships. This does involve alot of climbing in The Alps in the heat. So a massive challenge in itself. Lorraine also got herself 16th place 🏆🏆
A huge well done to our Tri Limits Triathlon Club friends who also had Athletes competing.
Great support from Brendan O Neill and the family to help get Lorraine over the line. But this just rounds up a strong summer. Well done Lorraine.

Just look at her proud smile! This weekend, the amazing Lorraine O'Neill will represent herself and our wee club in the IM70.3 world champs in Nice, France. Lorraine is no stranger to the international stage having competed previously on a European level. Over the last few years, she has gone from strength to strength regularly featuring on the podium.

Everyone in the club is behind you and wish you the very best of luck in your race Lorraine! And from each and every one of the Pikekickers....... Don't be s**t! 🤪
