  • You can have someone pick up your packet for you

Course Directions

Please follow the course starting with yellow, then green, then finishing with red.

Although we will have arrow signs, volunteers and police officers for you on the course, we also thought the following course breakdown would be helpful as well. Please familiarize yourself with the course prior to the event. 

The Start/Finish is located at King Commons Park, specifically where the ‘JC’ is located on the ground on King St. (near the new playground). The race starts by turning right into the Renasant Bank parking lot then turning right again onto Commerce St. Runners will continue straight on Commerce St. to the Great Lawn entrance at Founders Park where they will do a u-turn and head back on Commerce St. to a left turn into the Renasant Bank Parking lot and turn right onto King St. Runners will cross N. Roan St. and stay straight on King St. At the end of King St., turn left onto Elm St. then right onto Fairview Ave. At the end of Fairview Ave., turn left onto Hale St. then left again on Myrtle St. At the end of Myrtle St., turn left onto Oak St then turn right on to Fairview Ave. Cross N. Roan St. staying straight on Fairview Ave. At the end of this road, turn left onto Montgomery St. then left onto King St. where runners will finish the race across the ‘JC’ where they started. 

Volunteers Needed!

Injury? Not prepared to run or shuffle? Still want to be involved? Need community service or volunteer hours? This is a great event to be involved with. We are needing approximately 50 energetic individuals to assist us with packet pickup, course marshaling, water station and with post race activities and clean up. If you are available, we would love to have you. Make the most of your experience with us and dress in your best leprechaun attire. The runners will love seeing you on the course!
