Lace up your running shoes and embrace the spirit of St. Patrick's Day at the Red Beard Run 5k, set to take place on Saturday, March 14, 2026, in the charming town of Spicer, Minnesota. This vibrant 5K event promises a festive atmosphere, kicking off and concluding at Pirrotta Park, conveniently located across from O'Neil's. Runners will enjoy a picturesque course that winds towards Spicer's stunning North Shore and back, offering scenic views as you make your way through the race.

The Red Beard Run 5k is more than just a race; it's a celebration of community and camaraderie, welcoming participants of all ages and abilities with numerous divisions available. Embrace the St. Patrick's Day theme by donning your best green attire and, of course, a magnificent beard (real or fake!) for a chance to win special prizes. As a reward for your efforts, the first 200 entrants will receive a keepsake Red Beard Run pint glass, and those who register by midnight on March 7th are guaranteed a stylish race t-shirt. After crossing the finish line, celebrate your accomplishment with a meal and a refreshing beer at O'Neil's, served in your commemorative pint glass.

Prepare for typical early-spring Minnesota weather, with historical race day conditions showing highs around 37°F and lows around 17°F, and only a 6% chance of precipitation. While specific details on aid stations are not explicitly provided, the overall festive and community-focused nature suggests a well-supported and enjoyable experience for all participants. The Red Beard Run has a history of bringing runners together, making it a memorable addition to your race calendar.
