Homecoming for Belclare's sporting superhero

BONFIRES will blaze against the dark night sky over Belclare this Friday to welcome home the village’s own sporting superhero, Neasa Canavan, who competed in the ultimate Ironman event in Hawaii last weekend.
Neasa secured her place to compete against the top Ironman athletes from around the world when she came second in her age category at Ironman Wales last year. She has spent the past year training for the herculean challenge.
The popular physiotherapist is a member of the Tri Lakes Triathlon club which also celebrated successes the week before as 20 members crossed the finish line at Ironman Barcelona.
