IT’S great news that Ironman UK is staying in Bolton until 2017.
The annual endurance competition, which takes place on Sunday with its excellent Ironkids’ event for 2,500 youngsters the day before, has made its home here.
Not only is it a wonderful spectacle but it brings a helpful boost to the local economy. Many of us love seeing these tough men and women tackling the swim, bike ride and run and can only wonder at their determination.
The competitors from all over the country and their supporters are very welcome here – and we’re always glad to show our support.
