St Cocas AC 5K Road Race

22/08/2026

Well done to our neighbours Celbridge AC on their Celbridge AC 5K on Thursday, and our own race photographer Dermot Kelly 📸was there to capture all the action. It’s great to have so many local summer 5K’s to keep us all on our toes ! Fresh from his pacing duties at our Kilcock 10 mile Road Race - The 10 from 10 on Sunday, Tommy Walsh had a brilliant run in 16:54👏and great running by all his St. Coca’s AC team mates and Royal Canal parkrun, Kilcock royalty Paddy Doherty!

An insight into the commitment and drive it takes to be the National M45 5k road record holder. We were delighted when Michael Harty of East Cork AC. set the record at St Cocas AC 5K Road Race in June. An amazing run by Michael coming third overall in 14:13🙌

Some more finish line photos from our 5k Friday night. A big shoutout to Dermot Kelly for his dedication this weekend. He took 100’s of photos from prerace to the prize giving and spent hours editing them. A huge amount of work and it’s much appreciated by all at St. Coca’s A.C. 🙌🏼

A huge thank you to everyone who supported our 5K race on Friday night. Thankfully, it wasn't as hot as earlier in the week, but the conditions still made it a challenging race.

We were treated to a thrilling men's finish, with Jonas Stafford of UCD AC taking the win ahead of Colm Rooney from Clonliffe Harriers AC. Congratulations to both athletes on a fantastic race.

There were outstanding performances across the board. While our course records remained intact, we were delighted to witness a new National M45 5k record being set by our third-place finisher, Michael Harty of East Cork AC. Congratulations once again, Michael - we were proud to host such a special achievement!

Congratulations to Danielle Donegan of Tullamore Harriers, our first female over the line, followed by Faye Dervan from Dublin City Harriers in 2nd and Ciara Wilson in 3rd.

A sincere thank you to all our club members and friends who volunteered their time. From race setup and marshalling to refreshments and everything in between, your help was invaluable. The race simply couldn't happen without your support.

A special thank you also to Dermot Kelly, who did a superb job capturing the evening as our photographer. We're looking forward to seeing even more photos in the coming days. And to our MC Dave Walsh who kept everything running smoothly in the build up to the start line. And thank you to Myrunresults.com, Kildare Civil Defence and Donadea Wheelers for their support throughout the race.

To the community of Kilcock who came out to support the runners and to local businesses, Supervalu Kilcock, Delta Pipe Fabrication and Browne’s Centra Kilcock for their generosity, it’s much appreciated.

Well done to everyone who took part. It was fantastic to see such a great turnout from our neighbouring clubs, and athletes who travelled from further afield. It was a brilliant night of racing with a wonderful atmosphere and great camaraderie. Thank you for your support.

Finally, to our Race Director, Martin Baten, thank you for your dedicated leadership yet again! A huge amount of work goes into the organisation of a race and your hard work is much appreciated. And to our Race Committee … behind every great man … 😃Congratulations to all of you on a very successful event 🙌🏼

No time to rest on your laurels.. let’s get cracking on our 10 Mile Race! We look forward to seeing you all again in August 🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻Kilcock 10 mile Road Race - The 10 from 10
