St. Patrick's Day 5K @ Diversey Harbor

Go for a Run Before You Start Drinking!

Recommended by Michelle Connelly

Everybody knows that the Irish love to have a good time on St. Patrick’s Day. Unfortunately, seeing as how this year the South Side Irish parade is no longer, we need to find other ways to celebrate our favorite March holiday! To that effect, consider taking part in the St. Paddy’s Day 5K Run/Walk, taking place at the Diversey Harbor at the Lake. Seeing as how you’ll probably be racking up the calories later on with all the green beer you’ll be drinking, this run is probably a healthy way to spend your day!

Insider Info: To make things fun, there will also be a costume contest at the run to determine who has most festively displayed their Irish pride.There will also be a raffle for other prizes, and most importantly of all, a party after the race at The Trinity Bar, an Irish pub in the DePaul area of Lincoln Park. This bar actually has three different levels, so it’s a perfect way to wrap up a 5K run!
