One of Killarney’s newest businesses is offering Ring of Kerry Cycle participants a great deal to help prepare them for the event.

Reboot Recovery is the only dedicated recovery suite in town based in Woodlands Industrial Estate off the Killarney bypass. The facility is purpose built for people looking to get the best out of their body, reduce the risk of injury and perform to their maximum potential.

With the Ring of Kerry Cycle only a few weeks away, Reboot Recovery is offering advice and a 20% discount for all cyclists participating to help them stay fit and healthy in the lead up to the event.

ADVICE

“As the event gets closer participants will be hitting the road at every opportunity, trying to get as many miles in to the legs as they can," Chris Davies from Reboot said.

"It is important that people listen to their body during this training period and make sure they are giving their body adequate time to recover so that they stay injury free. Depending on your level of fitness and the training you have already banked, the number of rest days a person will need can vary, but a general rule of thumb is to allow your body 48 hours to recover.

“In the 24 to 48 hours after a tough workout you will feel the effects of DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness). This comes from tiny, microscopic tears in your muscle fibres. Your body responds to this damage by increasing inflammation and this restricts your ability to get back out and train.

"Getting in to Reboot Recovery the day after a tough session can help reduce the effects of DOMS and will allow you to recover and get back out on that bike faster. A few recovery sessions with Reboot, coupled with good sleep, diet and hydration will ensure you are adequately recovering in the lead up to the cycle.

​​​​​​​OFFER 

"We would like to offer all Ring of Kerry participants 20% off our full recovery session in the lead up to the cycle, meaning you will only pay €20 instead of €25.

"The one hour recovery session starts with five minutes in our Mobility and Activation Area using our Massage Guns and Electrical Rollers and Massage Balls, followed by 3 x 10 minutes in our market leading CET CryoSpa, Infrared Sauna and Hot Tub. After that clients chill out for 25 minutes in our NormaTec Compression Boots which give your legs a deep tissue massage."

To avail of the discount enter the code ROK22 when booking online at www.rebootkillarney.com. If you have any questions feel free to call us on 086 7809477 or email info@rebootkillarney.com.

Biddy’s Day festival returns to Mid-Kerry

Published

By

The Mid-Kerry Biddy’s Day Festival began yesterday and is running until February 2.

The festival is taking place across Killorglin, Cromane and the wider Mid-Kerry region, bringing together craft, music, language, ritual and community in the lead-up to St Brigid’s Day.

At the heart of the festival is the ancient Biddy tradition, rooted in Imbolc and the honouring of St Brigid, a time associated with light, renewal, creativity and protection.

Over twelve days, the festival offers a wide mix of family-friendly, traditional and contemporary events, culminating in its most anticipated moment of the year: The Biddy’s Parade.

The parade, taking place on Saturday January 31,is the centrepiece and defining event of the festival.

On parade night, Killorglin town is transformed as Biddy groups from across Mid-Kerry gather in straw hats and traditional costume, carrying Brídeógs through the streets in a powerful procession of fire, music, movement and celebration.

The parade is free, open to all to join in or support, and remains one of the most atmospheric and visually striking expressions of living Irish folklore in the country.

Fire performers, live music and street celebrations follow, before the night continues into the town’s venues.

Founded in 2017, the Mid-Kerry Biddy’s Day Festival has been instrumental in reviving a tradition that had been in serious decline.

From just two active Biddy groups less than a decade ago, the region now supports a growing network of groups, with children, families and new communities actively involved.

The 2026 festival continues this work, blending heritage with creativity and ensuring the tradition remains relevant, inclusive and alive.
