Carlow’s great hope is firmly attached to the handlebars of two locals setting out for world title glory. Cyclists Keith Heary and Louise Nolan are heading to Italy on September 27 and 28 to compete in the World Duathlon championships. The event, a two-discipline event with a 10km run, 40km cycle, and then a 5km run, takes place in Rimini, Italy. “Myself and Louise got selected to represent Ireland by taking part in a series of selection races over the course of the year,” Keith told Carlow First. “I qualified by finishing second overall in the Limerick Duathlon series of three races (winning one race), and also won the Waterford Duathlon, which were qualifying events. Louise qualified by finishing fourth overall in the Limerick Duathlon series and winning the Carrick-on-Suir Duathlon,” he said. Graiguecullen native Keith and Carlow native Louise are well known locally and are inundated with well wishes as they prepare for the trip.
