McCudden congratulates local man on triathlon challenge

Ballyclare Alliance Councillor Pat McCudden has congratulated local man Andrew Hassard after he completed a triathlon every day for 10 days.

Andrew took part in the NI Decaman Challenge and completed it alongside Keith Clarke from Dungannon and Bob Davidson from Cookstown.

Raising money for Cancer Focus NI, every day for 10 days Andrew completed a 2.4 mile swim, a 112 mile bike ride and then a 26.2 mile marathon.

Councillor Pat McCudden said: “I would like to wholeheartedly congratulate Andrew on this amazing achievement, particularly as he has raised money for such a worthwhile cause.

“Andrew should also be commended for the dedicated training he undertook in order to successfully finish this challenge. To completea 2.4 mile swim, a 112 mile bike ride and then a 26.2 mile marathon once could be applauded, but to do it for 10 consecutive days is an outstanding achievement.

“CancerFocus NI is a great charity and there is still time for local people to recognise Andrew’s hard work and donate via www.justgiving.com.”
