Leprechaun Fun Runs

For the wee ones to take part, we have two heats that run up and back on Tejon Street starting and ending at Acacia Park. A One Mile course for youngsters age 6 to 12, and a Half-Mile course for those 5 and under. A parent may tag along with the 5 and under runners. Make sure to be at Tejon and Bijou for the 11:00 start! Registration IS REQUIRED for all children to participate! Kids get a T-shirt and a chance to meet the Chick-fil-A Cows! Sorry, no refunds.
Pedalin’ for St. Pats
8:30 AM
If you are into Cycling, we have three courses to choose from to start your day! The three courses range from a family friendly course, and intermediate course, and a grueling (but amazing) ride from Downtown to the top of Woodmen at Blodgett Peak and returning for a party and ride IN the parade. All riders depart from Sahwatch and Colorado, just behind the Pikes Peak Center, and arrive at Nevada and Bijou in Acacia Park. Maps (course cues) will be available for all three courses at the St.Paddy’s Day Sports Expo on March 15, 2019.
