Lace up your greenest gear and celebrate the luck of the Irish at the St. Paddy's Day Lucky Run 5K/10K/13.1 KANSAS CITY, set to take place on Saturday, March 14, 2026, in the heart of Kansas City, Missouri. This festive road race invites runners and walkers of all ages and paces to embrace the spirit of St. Patrick's Day with distances including a Half Marathon (13.1M), 10K, 5K, and a 1-Mile Family Fun Run. Participants are encouraged to don shamrocks, leprechaun hats, and all things green for a day filled with "Luck, Laughs, and Laces!".

This smaller, private group run, known for quickly filling up its waves, offers a stress-free and supportive environment. Start your morning at 7:30 AM CDT at Mill Creek Park, with course maps conveniently emailed to you prior to the event. Typical race day conditions in mid-March often bring pleasant temperatures, with highs around 57°F and lows around 37°F, accompanied by only a 9% chance of precipitation. Runners will appreciate the optional timing, allowing for a focus on enjoyment and personal goals without the pressure of chips; times can be tracked via apps and submitted online.

Every participant in the St. Paddy's Day Lucky Run receives a fantastic swag bag, including a running T-shirt and a finisher's medal, with the added bonus of swag being shipped directly to your address, eliminating the need for packet pickup. This event is designed not just as a race, but as a lively community celebration, inviting you to connect with fellow revelers and perhaps even join local running clubs.
