Let's do the YMCA St. Patrick's Day 5k or 5 Mile Run 🍀💚🏃

If you are like me and really need to set goal to order to stay active during the winter months, this event is perfect for you! We did this race two years ago and we had an absolute blast! The community gets really involved and it is a great way to help support our local YMCA.

I haven't ran since our St. Patrick's day race in 2023, so it will certainly be a challenge for me! I am opting to run the 5 mile race, as it is more challenging than a 5k but less intimidating than a 10k. However, no matter the length or speed, everyone is welcome!

About the YMCA:
They strive to create welcoming, inclusive spaces where people of all abilities can access the support they need by offering financial assistance to access programs within our facilities or providing services outside our four walls at healthcare centers, schools, and other places in the community. The YMCA never turns anyone away due to inability to pay, and works hard to eliminate other barriers.

Event Description:
Trade your pot of gold for a pair of sneakers and join us for the most spirited St. Patrick's Day celebration in town – the Y's way! Spring into action with our YMCA St. Patrick's Run, where green isn't just a color; it's a way of life. Get ready to run, laugh, and showcase your shamrock swagger – it's all happening, and you're invited to the luckiest run in town!
