Roanoke's most loved and luckiest race, the Shamrock Hill Run, is happening on Saturday, March 14, 2026, with the mile starting at 8:45am and the 5k at 9:00am! Brought to you by Roanoke Catholic School, our 1-miler and 5K give you a healthy, fun start to all of Roanoke's St. Patrick's Day weekend festivities.
Both races will start and end at Roanoke Catholic, and feature spectator friendly routes that wind their way through Gainsboro and Lick Run Greenway. Medals will be awarded in all men’s and women’s age groups, along with a prize for the best St. Patrick’s Day costume, following the race at the Celtic-themed awards ceremony in Roanoke Catholic’s Gillespie Family Gymnasium. Participants as well as the general public are invited.
Race chip-timing provided by Run Roanoke.
