Welcome to the 2020 Wearin' of the Green 5K Shamrock Run! The 5K Certified Course on the historic Wearin' of the Green, St. Patricks Day Parade Route (3.1 miles) starts and ends at Moreau Physical Therapy on Perkins Road in Baton Rouge. You must be able to run or walk 3.1 miles in under one hour. The Wearin' of the Green, St. Patrick's Day Parade rolls immediately after the run. This run is going to be so much fun! Definitely Wear Your Green!
The Shamrock Run is excited to partner with Rebuilding Together Baton Rouge. Sponsorship proceeds from the 2020 race will go toward supporting this vital organization that helped rebuild homes following the 2016 flood and continues its mission today. Each RTBR project is different and relies on community support to complete its work. YOU will have an opportunity to donate as well when you register for the 2020 Shamrock Run. Please help us support this worthy organization!
