Pace to the Pint 5k Plymouth MA

Saturday March 15  9:30am

In our first year, we started with only 3 pubs involved in our after-party.  Now, in our 3rd year, we are up to 9 pubs.  The Pace to a Pint 5K is back in 2014 – Plymouth’s St. Patrick’s Day Road Race!

This sought-after course shows runners a beautiful waterfront view in the early spring.  Your return trip to the finish line offers the energy of Court Street, as you pass many of the pubs you will soon be occupying.

Once you cross the finish line, you begin your St. Patrick’s Day celebration in booming downtown Plymouth.  All 21+ runners will receive one beer ticket good for a Harpoon beer one of the 9 sponsoring bars. This race will end right around lunch time, so bring your friends and family along to celebrate your achievement, and the holiday!  There will be something for everyone, whether you’re looking to boogie down, or enjoy a quiet meal with your family, as many of the bars will be offering a wide range of live entertainment and cuisine.  From solo acoustic acts to Irish step dancers – this event promises to deliver.  Benefiting  Liam’s Lucky Charm
