A Race That Celebrates Irish Tradition

The Lucky Leprechaun 5K pays tribute to the rich traditions of St. Patrick’s Day, a cultural and religious celebration honoring Ireland’s patron saint. Over the years, St. Patrick’s Day has transformed into a global party filled with parades, Irish music, dance, festive food, and, of course, plenty of green attire!

Here in Boulder, we’re bringing that same Irish spirit to the racecourse—so dress up in your luckiest green gear and run like you’re chasing a pot of gold!
