Shamrock Shuffle 5K - Somerset

Shamrock Shuffle 5K - Somerset is held in Somerset, Kentucky, in Pulaski County, on March 13, 2027, as a St. Patrick's Day celebration open to all ability levels. The 5K Run/Walk (3.1 miles) and a 5K competitive walk both start at 10:00 AM, and the Fastest Kid In Town event goes off at 9:30 AM. The course is professionally timed, so results are accurate for everyone in the field.

The mix of formats tells you what kind of morning this is: runners chasing a time, walkers on the same 3.1 miles, and a kids' race beforehand. There is a costume contest for best outfit, and awards go to the top three finishers as well as to age-group winners, and the event supports local businesses through Chamber of Commerce programs. A late start suits anyone traveling in that morning, and a month of regular running is preparation enough for the distance.
