Mike Gonda – Plans for 2016

I’m still doing a lot of running and so far in 2016 I have completed 8 marathons starting with East of Ireland Stapelstown on January 23rd, Tokyo, East of Ireland Howth, East of Ireland Longwood, Belfast, East of Ireland Clontarf, Rock n’ Roll Liverpool and the Walled City marathon in Derry along with Portumna 50K ultra and the Irish Runner 5 mile. I completed my first triathlon at the Try a Tri in Athy in June the day before doing the walled city marathon. I felt great! I am doing a half Ironman distance in 2 weeks at the Lilliput Adventure Centre for Autism in Carlow, it’s a charity one so I’m confident that I can finish it. I will see how I go with this race then maybe consider doing the Dublin IM this year. My ultimate goal is to do the Frankfurt IM in 2018.
