The Route
The course takes you from the Blarney Irish Pub past the Toledo Mud Hen’s 5/3 Field, along side the Toledo Union Train Station around to the Oliver House/Maumee Bay Brewery where you can stop in for a “hydration” break, then along the riverfront near Owens Corning, before heading up Summit Street past Fort Industry Square, Promenade Park and Imagination Station. At Jackson Street you’ll make a u-turn and head back up Summit to Monroe, finishing near the Blarney’s “Shamrockin’” party tent.
*Valid ID required for entry & packet pick up.
Entertainment: DJ & Bands TBD

The course has been updated to run past the Middlegrounds Metropark and under the High Level Bridge. Just after mile 2 (at Summit St.), feel free to continue straight on Monroe St. to the finish line (since this isn’t an awards race; just a Shuffle). The full 3 mile course will turn right on Summit St.
