Today club runner Ronan O’Hara crossed the finish line at Barcelona Marathon in 2:29:29
Securing a club record for St. Peter’s AC and breaking the elusive 2:30 threshold that categorises him in the sub-elite class.
Ronan, who is forever humble about his achievements, kept a steady pace for most of the race (an average of 5 minutes and 40 seconds per mile!) before hammering home the last 0.4 mile in 5 minutes and 7 seconds. Absolute class

The day was very much a family affair with brother Niall also nailing his first sub 3 marathon at the race
.
Well done to both of you from all at SPAC. We are so proud of you!
celebrating the phenomenal Kate Mulholland, a lifelong member of the club who excels at every distance – track, XC and the marathon. Kate was a key member of the St Peter’s XC champions and has represented Northern Ireland in XC. This week she showed her exceptional form once again with a superb 1:23:23 at Bohermeen HM. Kate seems to get faster every year, and we can’t wait to see what comes next.

International woman’s day
First up, Patricia O’Hagan, a long-time St Peter’s athlete, marked the day in style by completing her first-ever half marathon, clocking a brilliant 1:28:12 at this week’s Bohermeen AC Half Marathon. Patricia is a driving force in our ladies XC team and was instrumental in their league and championship wins, has claimed countless 5K and 10K titles, and took the top spot at WAAR 2025. She leads from the front in every sense.
