Challenge Almere – Irene O’Connor

After five years in this sport I thought it was about time I took on the full iron distance. First off I took on an ultra-marathon in Connemara in April 63k, nice hilly course just to build a base and keep focused during the winter months. I looked at a lot of plans but decided […]
