Carlow family to represent county on Ireland's Fittest Family

A family from Carlow will represent the county on this season of Ireland’s Fittest Family.

The Dalys, trained by Donnacha O’Callaghan, made their debut in Series 14 of the show on November 1st.

The father, Bobby Senior, is 46 and works for ESB Networks.

He loves to run, play Gaelic football, and take part in Hyrox.

He signed his family up as a surprise and made it to the final stage of the English SAS, but missed out on selection, according to KCLR.

Jenny, the mother, runs Valhalla Saunas Carlow along the river, and likes to keep fit by running.

They are joined by their 16-year-old daughter Erin and 20-year-old son Bobby Junior.

Erin is a TY student at Gaelcholáiste Carlow who plays rugby and football, and goes to the gym.

Bobby Junior is a Civil Engineering student at SETU Carlow.

He’s into Gaelic Football like his dad, and enjoys hurling and the gym.

The Dalys will compete against families from Cork, Donegal, Galway, Dublin, Derry, Laois, and Tipperary.

The family received plenty of support in the comments section of the Instagram post announcing that they will feature on the show, which Laura Fox hosts.

“Best of luck Daly family,” “Super proud of you all. We can't wait to see it,” and “We will be cheering you on,” are just a few words of support offered.

You can watch Ireland’s Fittest Family on RTÉ this Sunday at 6:30pm.
