Ras na hEireann U.S.A.—A St. Patrick’s Day 5K Race

Ras na hEireann is the most genuine Irish race this side of the Atlantic. It is a celebration of traditions dating back centuries and simply a celebration of spring in Somerville, Massachusetts.

This race was born in Ireland and named in honor of its famous sister race, the Ras na hEireann International Cross Country held in Termonfechin, County Louth, Republic of Ireland. The Ras na hEireann U.S.A. 5 Km is open to all, from beginners to international stars.

This race is a gem, an Emerald to be sure, and has become a local spring tradition in only five years. What a way to kick off the new 2010 racing season and celebrate the coming of spring.

There are 5000 registered runner & walker limit.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
