St. Paddy's Day Lucky Run 5K/10K MEMPHIS
St. Paddy's Day Lucky Run takes place on March 20, 2027, at Riverwalk in Memphis, TN 38103. The event offers in-person and virtual options and includes a family fun run.
Distances:
- 5K
- 10K
- 13.1 (half marathon)
- 1 mile family fun run
- Virtual run option
The event uses capped participant waves; each wave closes when it fills and a waitlist or the virtual option is offered once waves are full. Participants may reserve a wave after registration. The organizer describes this as a smaller, private group run intended to limit crowding.
Timing is optional. Runners can track their own time with a device and submit results through the organizer's submission process. There are no timing chips; coordinators can assist with timing on site. Coordinators remain on site for several hours after the first wave.
Swag is shipped to U.S. mailing addresses and includes a running T-shirt, a finisher's medal, a virtual training run sent by email, online results and a certificate of completion, and an invitation to join a local run club. Packet pickup is minimized and shirts are mailed; bibs are handed out on race day. A lightweight technical shirt upgrade is available for a small additional fee.
Registration fees listed for the event include amounts for each distance and for the virtual option. All paces and ages are welcome; participants under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian.
Sponsors named for the event include Cure Hydration, KaChava, Runforothers, and KeepGoingRun. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
