A LIMERICK family will join the ranks of Ireland’s Fittest Family this weekend when they vie for a shot at being the fittest in the country.
Limerick’s Kearns family will battle it out between families from Tipperary, Dublin, and Waterford for a place in the next round of the competition on Sunday (November 5).
Brothers Wayne, Gerard, and Alex will join mother Miriam in the challenge, with the family describing themselves “as crazy and each as competitive as the next”.
Wayne Kearns is fresh off winning a county hurling medal with Na Piarsaigh and will be looking to showcase his prowess.
The Kearns family are coached by retired jockey Nina Carberry, and are “more than up for the challenge”.
The fearless families will battle it out for two coveted places in the next round of the competition at a brand-new location called ‘The Farm’.
The Kearns will be joined on screen by the Byrnes family from Tipperary, the Peters family from Waterford, and the Murrays from Dublin.
Season 11 of Ireland’s Fittest Family continues on RTE One and the RTE Player on Sunday from 6.30pm.
