Lightning Warriors St. Patrick's Day 5K

The Lightning Warriors St. Patrick's Day 5k is an annual athletic event held at Gadsden Park in Tampa, Florida. This event marks the fifth edition of the run and walk, which serves as a fundraiser for the Lightning Warriors Hockey Program (LWHP). The organization is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to supporting disabled veterans who were wounded in defense of the United States.

Participants can choose between two primary options for participation:

5k Run/Walk (3.1 miles)
Virtual 5k (3.1 miles)

The Lightning Warriors Hockey Program utilizes the sport of ice hockey to provide both recreational and competitive environments for its members. The program focuses on therapeutic and educational support for the veteran community within the Tampa region. By transitioning from the ice to the running course, the event aims to foster community strength and support for those who have served.

The in-person portion of the event takes place at 6901 S MacDill Ave. The funds generated through registration fees are used to help educate and provide support to disabled veterans through the sport of hockey. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
