Paudie goes for triathlon gold 3 years after learning to swim
He’s one of three Corkmen, all members of the West Cork Triathlon Club, who will be representing their country at different events later this year in the upcoming World Triathlon Championships.
Next June, the Skibbereen father-of-two, who only took up running as a hobby when he gave up smoking in 2008, flies to France to compete in the formidable long-distance world triathlon championships, in which he must also cycle 110km and run 30km, a feat which he expects to compete in under eight hours.
