St. Patrick’s 5K race returns to Wolfe’s Pond Park

The St. Patrick’s 5K race will return to Wolfe’s Pond Park on March 22, 2025, after a 13-year hiatus due to Hurricane Sandy's damage in 2012. The park has since been restored through collaborative efforts. Previously, the race was held at Clove Lakes Park while Wolfe’s Pond was being repaired. This year, a new course designed by SIAC member Mario Ricca, Jr. will feature 75% flat paved paths and 25% trails. Runners can pre-register at The Local on March 20 or online. Awards will be given to the top three finishers in various age groups, and participants are encouraged to wear green for St. Patrick’s Day.
