Celebratory Elements
In celebration of St. Patrick's Day, each runner receives Shamrock bulbs to plant. Instead of physical medals, the event features a photo booth where a photographer takes a photo with the participant's phone. Participants can wear a medal and Shamrock props in front of a rainbow backdrop. Wearing green outfits is encouraged. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
