Chicago’s beloved St. Patrick’s Day tradition, The Bank of America’s Shamrock Shuffle is back on Sunday, March 24. Whether a seasoned marathoner or a first-time shuffler, the Shamrock Shuffle is the perfect way to get active and celebrate this St. Patty’s Day!
This year’s course features a one-of-a-kind trail through the Chicago Loop, finishing and ending in Grant Park. The Shamrock Shuffle 8K Run begins at 8:30 a.m. and the 2-Mile Walk begins around 9:30 a.m.
Participants are encouraged to dress for the occasion and wear festive and fun St. Patrick's Day outfits. A post-race party will be held at Buckingham Fountain in Grant Park immediately following both races. From 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., shufflers (21 and older) will receive a drink ticket for one free beer with additional drink tickets available for purchase.
The entry fee for both the 8K and 2-Mile Walk ranges from $39 to $70. Runners are encouraged to sign up early before the entrance fees increase. Registration is open until capacity is reached.
