NINE determined Limerick ladies underwent intensive training ahead of their participation in a HYROX Endurance event in Dublin’s RDS this week (November 12-16).

The ‘Foynes Rox’ team – consisting of Dympna O’Malley, Therése Hanlon, Ann Fitzimons, Pamela Costello, Margaret Kelly, Ann Shanahan, Niamh Mulcahy, Rose Moroney and Katie Moynihan – have been honing their fitness under the guidance of 26-year-old Foynes LVL 1 gym-owner, Shane Dunne.

The four day fitness event consists of competitions combining 1km running events and ‘test-of-endurance’ workouts involving ‘push/pull’ weight trails – all of which will be repeated eight times over the four days in front of a host of spectators.
