A shorter race through Harmony on rolling hills. It welcomes runners and walkers.
1 Mile
A shorter outing that welcomes families and participants trying a race experience.
Want more than one finish line?
Complete all three races, about 17.2 miles. Two-race combinations have been offered as well. Package prices will be posted when registration opens.
What people come for
Festive clothing
Green shirts, shamrocks, and St. Patrick’s Day colors are part of the morning.
Friends and families
People show up together, whether they are racing a chosen distance or cheering along the way.
A real challenge
Distance runners have a half marathon that asks for more than an easy loop.
A local purpose
The race is a community fundraiser for the Rotary Club of Zelienople.
Previous editions offered optional Jell-O shots for adults 21 and older on Textor Hill. That tradition is not confirmed for 2027.
