Introduction Originally from Cork, Ireland. Moved to Atlanta in 1995 after a few sojourns in Boston over a couple of years. Picked up running as part of life redirection in 1997. Completed the Atlanta half marathon that November and have n't stopped running since. Completing that race still rates as the toughest challenge to date, doing it gave me the self belief that keeps me going now. In the years since I've completed many more half marathons, 8 marathons, a 1/2 Ironman and a few sprint triathlons. I also continued to play Gaelic football and hurling with the odd bit of Aussie Rules in the mix to round things out. For this year I'm pushing other activities to the back round and focusing on running.
