The first of four St. Patrick’s Day themed O’races starts and finishes outside Kinsmen Brewing Company, just steps from the Farmington Canal Heritage Trail. A fast 3.1 mile course through rural roads in Southington and Cheshire brings runners back to the festivities at the brewery and taproom. This party of a road race is not to be missed – costumes always encouraged!
Swag includes St. Paddy’s themed drinkware. Participants 21+ (with ID) also enjoy an ice cold craft beer from Kinsmen Brewing and everyone re-fuels with fresh hot pizza from Sauced at Kinsmen.
Lucky Challenge – Participate in all four O’races and earn the big bling! Check out the options for virtual/in-person combos to achieve the Lucky Challenge goal. Start with O’Shenanigans, then take on the Courthouse O’Putnam, O’Niantic and either the O’Hartford 5K or 10K.
NEW! Li’l Lucky – Love the idea of a challenge but can’t swing two weekends of 5Ks in a row? Join the new Li’l Lucky back-to-back 5K challenge by signing up for the O’Shenanigans 5K and the Courthouse O’Putnam on Sunday, March 10. All Li’l Lucky participants will earn a finisher medal.
