The 4 of us originally from Gaoth Dobhair (Joe McFadden, Odhran McFadden Ferry, John Crossan and JP McGee) are participating in the Busselton Ironman festival in Australia, competing in both full and half Ironman.

We are taking on this challenge to raise funds for the Kevin bell trust, a charity that helps families when a loved one dies suddenly or tragically while abroad.

We are also raising money for Donegal Cancer Flights & Services, which is a volunteer-led charity based in Gaoth Dobhair, that helps cancer patients and their families with the practical and emotional difficulties of travelling for treatment. It is affiliated with the Irish Cancer Society.

We would also like to thank our sponsors that have helped us on the road to the event in one way or another;

Muehlhan Wind services

Cosmic racing

Cnocfola contracts

Caife kitty

Teach huidi Beag

FTS scaffolding

McFaddens garage

Leos’s tavern

We’ll receive our tracking numbers 24-48hrs before the race starts for anyone who would like to follow us through the race, it will be posted on social media. Any donation will be greatly appreciated!
