Third Thirsty Thursday Evening 5K Race Series : Race 7 of 7
This event is the seventh and final race in the Third Thirsty Thursday evening 5K series, held on October 21, 2027, at Trooper Thorn’s Irish Beef House in Reading, PA. The series runs April through October and this race completes the seven-race sequence.
The course is a wheel-measured, mostly flat out-and-back on the Thun trail, run entirely on packed cinder or paved trail. The commonly used layout goes approximately 1.55 miles out to a turnaround and returns to the start behind the pub.
Registration options include a full-series preregistration and individual race entry on race night for those not in the series. Series entry fees were set with an early postmark deadline in April 2027 and a higher rate thereafter; individual race entry is charged per race. Shirts are available for sale while supplies last.
On-site features noted for the event include a finish clock, mile markers, instant results, light eats, meals for purchase at the venue, door prizes, and street parking near the pub. Each entry includes a complimentary beer for participants of legal drinking age and a complimentary soft drink for minors; minors not accompanied by a parent must exit the venue by 9:30 PM. The October event offers Halloween costume prizes. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
