The Councillor was speaking after completing the Duathlon, a 2.3 mile run, 9 mile Cycle and finally another 2.3 run.
"It was a demanding but enjoyable test for all participants, particularly with the outbursts of rain and many thanks to those from the local Bessbrook Community who came out to support and cheer us all on. Ultimately everyone got home safe and sound and many thanks to all who ensured that.
It was great to see stewards including my colleague Cllr Turlough Murphy and members of the Camlough Community Association and Feile Camlocha Group helping out on the night, which is what true community partnership is, and I must say the tea and refreshments in the Bessbrook Institute were very welcome. A great event. A truly memorable sporting and community night" said the elected representative.
