A big congrats to Thurles student Anna Hickman who was the first female in the 750m Race and was second overall in the Junior Mixed Race in the Gaelforce Great Fjord swim in Killary Fjord at the weekend.
The Great Fjord swim is described as "the original swimming event of the Gaelforce Swim Trilogy, a swim like no other and a true West of Ireland experience".
This is Anna’s second year to win the Junior section, a fantastic result in rough weather conditions!
