Race Information

The Shamrock 4-Miler returns to Stonecrest at Piper Glen! 

This spring classic is one to run! Expect a challenging run and all the holiday-themed fun β€” including the soon-to-be-famous and always entertaining Lucky Charms eating contest!  

The 4-mile course winds around the shopping center’s surrounding neighborhoods, and features a (mostly) downhill first half. Save some gas for the second half, as you climb your way back to the finish! It’s an 8am start for the 4-miler, and a 9am start for the Kids’ Kilometer. Make plans to stick around for post-race trivia, prizes, and that Lucky Charms eating contest. There’s $100 cash on the line!
