How do you do a Zero K “Run?” Walk. Not. Far. Why? Less chance of spilling your drink. Some running will be tolerated.
For all who have cheered from the sidelines as your friends and loved ones have run a mile or a marathon .this Leprechaun Zero K Run is for YOU!
Walk or skip your way to the finish line, while enjoying 3 rest stops along the exhausting block-and-a-half, pick up a golden cold one, snag some tasty food, listen to live Irish music by the talented John Condron (www.johncondron.com) and Anne Hatfield-Violinist , search for gold hidden by Leprechauns and share in some shenanigans, too! Event for ages 21 and older.
