St. Patrick's Day Mad Mile - Utica, New York - Running

The St. Patrick's Day Mad Mile is a Running race in Utica, New York consisting of a 1 Mile.

The Sneaker Store's St. Patrick's Day Mad Mile is the best way to kick of a great St. Patrick's Day! It's our Annual race this year, and it will be bigger and better! Bring your family, your friends, and your best Irish outfit, and get ready to dash down the Genesee Street parade route just ahead of the Utica St. Patrick's Day Parade. With a built-in cheering crowd, this one-mile course with a slight elevation drop will get you revved up to enjoy the day's festivities. We'll gather for the Start on Clinton Place at Genesee Street, and move to the start line on Genesee Street at 9:40 am. As you can expect road closures and delays, please plan accordingly for parking and extra time to walk to the start. We cannot delay the start as the parade goes off at 10:00. Please be aware of your surroundings, as parade floats will be lining up near the start line. The 1-mile race course is a straight shot down Genesee Street (hello, downhill!), ending at Colombia Street where we will gather for results (TNT Timing) and prizes (Courtesy of The Sneaker Store and Mizuno). Then you can relax, enjoy the parade (we have a perfect view from our finish line area!!!), and maybe even wander down to Varick Street for some more celebrating!

With a portion of the proceeds benefiting the Great American Irish Festival and the building of the Irish Cultural Center in Downtown Utica, this is a race you can feel good about entering!
