SUPPORT RONAN ON HIS UPCOMING MARATHON IN PHILLY NOV 23nd
Last year, Ronan took on his first marathon race, the Pocantico Hills Marathon in Sleepy Hollow. This marathon is known as one of the toughest around with over 3,000 feet of elevation gain packed into the 26.2 miles.
He crossed the finish line in 4 hours and 34 minutes, earning 1st place in the under-20 category
and placing 41st overall.
This year, Ronan’s back and upping the challenge. He’s running back-to-back races in Philadelphia, combined as The Independence Challenge. First up, an 8K on Saturday, November 22, a warm up to the main event,
and second is the Philadelphia Marathon on Sun, Nov 23
