2027 Philly Shamrock Run

Race Information

The Philly Shamrock Run is a St. Patrick’s Day themed 5K held in Philadelphia. The USATF certified course is mostly flat and paved, making it a good option for both runners chasing a fast time and those looking for a more casual 5K. There is also a team competition where groups of three compete based on their combined finishing time.

Expect a festive St. Patrick’s Day atmosphere, with plenty of green and costumes. If you're over 21 you'll be getting a free beer at the finish line. Yay!
