    That's a fantastic result. Not just 3rd, but in a sprint off to 1st place!
    Is she going to do London next weekend too?

    Typical really. I suppose they'll feel they've done their triathlon thing with Athlone the other week. Might hear about it again for London in 2012.

    What a shame not to have a big result reported on.

    Savage result.

    I'd say it will be on Eurosport in the coming days or weeks.

    i don't think it was on setanta ireland, which is all i have. maybe they'll try showing it given the irish interest?

    There's a good piece about it on the Rte.ie site. Have to say I didn't see that coming at all, looks like it was a top class field as well. Fair play to her.

    I dont think even she expected it! It was great! I had watched it from the end of the swim so my nerves were shot by the time that last km came on the run, burned my dinner and all cos i cudnt leave the PC :P

    And yeah poor Keane had a spill. Nasty bit of road rash too - http://www.bryankeane.com/triathlete/
