Set for Sunday, March 29, 2026, in picturesque North Kingstown, Rhode Island, this event offers a vibrant 5K run/walk (3.1 miles) for all ages and abilities, along with a spirited 400M Kids Leprechaun Run for children 12 and under. The main 5K race kicks off at 11 AM, following the youth event at 10:30 AM, making it a perfect outing for families and competitive runners alike.
The Shamrock Shuffle 5K course starts and finishes at North Kingstown High School, offering a generally accessible route. While specific elevation details are not provided, the festive atmosphere is guaranteed as you run through the charming North Kingstown area. Typical race day conditions in late March often see highs around 50°F and lows near 31°F, with a 16% chance of precipitation, so plan your green attire accordingly. After crossing the finish line, the celebration continues with an energetic post-race party featuring live music and refreshments at The Trap in East Greenwich.
This race isn't just about the finish line; it's a celebration of community and Irish heritage. As the grand finale of the three-race Tour de Patrick series, participants who complete all three events earn exclusive custom Tour de Patrick socks and a commemorative finisher's medal. Walkers are warmly welcomed to join the 5K, and while strollers must start at the back for safety, no pets are permitted on the course. Don't miss your chance to be part of this memorable St. Patrick's Day tradition!
