Lace up your running shoes for a festive dash at the St. Paddy's Leprechaun 5K, set to take place on Saturday, March 14, 2026, in the charming town of Stevenson, WA. This popular 5K run/walk offers a unique "pub hop" experience, beginning and ending at the renowned Walking Man Brewing, creating a lively atmosphere from start to finish. Participants will enjoy a fast and flat road course that winds through Stevenson's picturesque waterfront and vibrant downtown, providing scenic views as you celebrate St. Patrick's Day.

Now in its fifth year, this event has built a reputation as a fun community gathering. Runners often praise the festive atmosphere, making it a memorable experience for all skill levels. Typical race day conditions in mid-March often bring highs around 53°F and lows around 37°F, with a 41% chance of precipitation, so runners should be prepared for potentially brisk and damp weather. After crossing the finish line, celebrate your achievement with a refreshing beverage, as the event is known for its post-race "liquid refreshment." Embrace the spirit by donning your best green attire and Irish costumes for a truly enchanting experience.
