Come join the grand celebration. It’s the 49th running of the St. Pat’s Races in Aggieville. One of Manhattan’s largest running events, it has drawn record numbers of walkers and runners, topping 1,000 participants each of the past four years.
The race will be chip-timed by Manhattan Running Company, which also offers live event announcing at the finish line, results kiosks for runners, and the option to have your result sent to you through social media apps.
We’re proud to continue our tradition of designating a portion of the proceeds as a benefit for the Special Olympics and the Marvin Hachmeister Scholarship Fund. Plan to spend the day in Aggieville.
