McGuires 5K Run.

30 before 30 list: 4) Run a 5K

McGuire's Irish Pub put on the 35th annual McGuire's St. Patrick's Day 5K Run this past Saturday. More than 13,000 registered runners and walkers participated and over 900 gallons of their famous green Irish Wakes were made for participants at the after party.

This is the largest prediction run in the country. I wouldn't necessarily say this race is considered very competitive but maybe just in the costume category. I was going to run, but decided to walk and have a good time with the girls while the boys ran. So, my prediction time was way off. We ran to a couple of checkpoints, to get around big crowds of people and we ran to the finish line!

Take a look at the crowds and the fun time we had. If you have never experienced the McGuire's 5K Run before, you must put this on your to do list.
