Gallery Two: Ironman Cork 70.3 2022

What a day for the return of Ironman Ireland, Cork! The weather played ball, and the atmosphere in every part of Youghal town could only be described as absolutely electric. Crowds two to three people deep lined the swim, bike and run courses and the finish line cheers could be heard echoing all over town.

In the first ever hosting of the sold-out 70.3 event, Tom Rigby and Deirdre Casey topped the overall podiums. Full results are available from IRONMAN.com here.
