Rob excels in Bantry!

Sunday, August 9, 2020
On Saturday, BRC's Rob Lawrence travelled to Bantry, Cork, to compete in his first ever middle distance Ironman, consisting of a 1900m swim, 56 mile cycle and a 13.1 mile run. In blistering conditions, Rob exited the water in 4th place, in a fast time of 28 ½ minutes. Rob gained a place during the hilly cycle, finishing this section in 2h 30m and starting his run in 3rd place overall. With a fast half marathon time of 1h 34m Rob finished the race in a phenomenal 4th place overall, having just been overtaken near the finish. 

Ballymena Road Club wish to pass their congratulations to Rob on this fabulous performance.
