St. Paddy's Day Lucky Run 5K/10K/13.1 SACRAMENTO

St. Paddy's Day Lucky Run Sacramento is held in Sacramento, California, on March 20, 2027. All four distances go off at 7:30 a.m.: a half marathon of 13.1 miles, a 10K, a 5K and a one-mile family fun run, run under the St. Patrick's banner used across the series.

Late March lands neatly in the middle of spring marathon season, so if you have a 26.2 coming up, treat the half as a dress rehearsal: run it at goal marathon pace, eat what you plan to eat on the day, and wear the shoes you will race in. If it is your target race instead, twelve weeks of steady mileage with one long run and one tempo per week will have you ready. The shorter options fit anyone tapering or just starting out.
