Conor is a bit of a jack of all trades, master of none. If it’s based on fitness, he’s done it or at least gave it a try. When he isn’t educating his students in school or coaching on the gym floor, you can find him quietly working on himself, for himself, his family and his friends.
Growing up, representing his county and province from minors through to seniors with Tyrone GAA and Ulster GAA, his efforts and discipline resulted in an All Ireland medal at the age of 18, a dream come true for so many Gaelic footballers across the world.
Some of his past achievements include racing Pro Doubles Hyrox W.C in 2024, cementing himself inside the Top 50 Irish CrossFit athletes and if there’s a competition worth in the UAE, he’s probably taken at least a podium spot in it.
