It was a pleasure to meet and chat to Irish Multisport Athlete Rob Dwyer
Robs story, though relatively new to multisport, was refreshing to hear.
Rob says
"I came from a hurling back round which I played right up until last May 2023.
I decided to retire from it and a friend of mine was at me to have a go at a triathlon since covid, with that I took on my first try a tri in June of 2023."
"After that first one I was hooked and with the season pretty much under way, I decided to take on the pikeman an Olympic distance Triathlon in Wexford that year.
That was a wrap for 2023, then over the Christmas period I was training away on the turbo and my friend decided it would be great idea to take on Ironman Wales in September 2024 which I signed up for. "
"So with that done I got training and decided to to take on the duathlon season in 2024 with kicking of my season off in Waterford and wrapping it up in The Phoniex park for the national finals. With my results in that being good enough I was lucky enough to be put forward to represent Ireland at the world championships in Malaga later this year."
