Third Thirsty Thursday Evening 5K Race Series - Race 3/7
Third Thirsty Thursday is a series of evening 5K road races held on the third Thursday of each month from April through October 2027 at Trooper Thorn's Irish Beef House, 451 Morgantown Rd (Rt 10), Reading, PA. The event listed is Race 3 of 7 in the series.
The course runs mostly on the Thun trail and is described as mostly flat with packed cinder or paved surface. Typical layouts go about 1.55 miles out to a turnaround and return to the start area behind Trooper Thorn's. The race features mile markers, a finish clock, and instant results.
Entry options include a full seven-race series and individual race entries. Series pricing is tiered based on postmark dates, and individual race entry is available on race night; shirts are sold while supplies last. No refunds are offered. Registrants receive a complimentary beer with each entry; minors receive a complimentary soft drink and must exit the venue by 9:30 PM unless accompanied by a parent.
Awards include first overall male and female and age-group prize allocations across multiple bands. A separate Clydesdale/Clydette category has specific weight criteria and requires designation at first entry for the entire series. Races are normally held rain or shine; if postponed they are generally moved to the next Thursday. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
