Hi Folks,
My name is Neville O'Neill, I'm the race director from Olympian Triathlon Club and I’m organising the Mourne Triathlon for 2012. I wanted to let you know that Mourne is now open for entry, details are below. I’m contacting everyone from the 2011 entries first to give you the chance of getting in early and having first chance before it really starts to heat up
I was the race organiser for the event in 2011 and I'm taking the task on again with the main goal of putting on a safe, enjoyable and challenging event. We've done a lessons learnt on the 2011 event and taken all the feedback people gave us as we feel it's important to put on an event everyone can enjoy and feel it's good value for money.
So what will 2012 bring? Well for starters it's the same cost as last year £45 for single entries and £70 for relay. We've also moved the race to July 7th this year and we've also been granted National Series status. We are at present the only Olympic distance event in Northern Ireland with National Series status. This will give people a chance to score NS points for the 2012 year. We are in talks with sponsorship companies and we are going to ensure the goodie bags are well supplied this year.
The event was moved from August to July as the original date clashed with the Women's Olympic event in London and we didn't want to risk stealing the spotlight from that event :)
Details so far:
Event Date - July 7th 2012 10am start

I look forward to seeing you all in July for what I hope to be an enjoyable race for everyone
Until then stay safe and happy training :)
