Kirkland Shamrock Run: March 16
The Kirkland Shamrock Run is a fun-filled 5K
celebrating Kirkland, healthy living and, of course,
St. Patrick's Day! Lace up your tennies, put on your
green garb and race to the pot o' gold waiting for
you at the finish line. All pint-sized racers who
register for the Kid's Race will receive a medal, bib
and kid's shirt with their $15 registration fee. The
kid's race is not chip timed, FYI. The course is about
0.4 miles long. Kids get to run through the race start
and finish archways.
