The Lake Agassiz Pacers St Patrick's Day 5K/10K Run has been a staple running/walking event in Fargo for many years. Get your "Green" on and come out for a great time. The Lake Agassiz Pacers have hosted the St Patrick's Day Run since the 1980's and very happy to bring the event back on the road.
This race offers a fast, shaded, USATF certified course that starts and finishes near downtown at the Brookings County Courthouse, snakes through downtown and residential Brookings, including passes near Pioneer Park, the children’s museum, and through Hillcrest Park. The course is well marked with very light traffic. Entry fee includes a t-shirt, entry for door prizes, age group medals to the top three! Run for Beef & Eggs offers over $1,200 in cash prizes for the top three males and females in hopes of bringing the best competition from around the area. The race also encourages novice runners and walkers to come out and enjoy the morning while getting fit! Beef and Eggs 5k also doubles as the USATF Dakota's Association 5k Road Race Championships.
