Thank you for your patience as we’ve worked through the logistics of rescheduling the St. Pat’s 5K & Beer Run due to the recent tornado. After coordinating with the City, our timing company, and volunteers, we’re excited to announce that the event has been rescheduled for Saturday, March 29.
In light of recent events, we’ve decided to shift the focus of this race to support tornado relief efforts, and we’re now calling it #RunRollaStrong.
