BACK ONCE AGAIN!!! RACE THE COURSE 5K/10K LEPRECHAUNS ON THE LINKS SUPPORTING ACCESSIBILITY FOR ALL TO LMT PARKS

Join us for the 4th running of the Lower Makefield Township "Race the Course 5K & 10K" on Saturday, March 14th, just in time for St. Patty's Day. This event is open to all individuals and supports Lower Makefield Parks and Recreation in their continued goal to improve disability access to township parks for all individuals. The event is run on the cart paths of the Makefield Highlands Golf Club in Yardley, PA.

The 5K and 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk will be contained mostly on the flatter front 9 holes of the golf course, while the 10K will start on the front 9 but finish on the back nine holes of the golf course which has a few more challenging hills.

All paying participants registered by March 1st will receive a custom designed Race the Course shirt in their preferred size and the first 200 paid registrations will also receive a custom designed Race the Course medal. Shirts are not guaranteed for those registering after March 1st.

We encourage everyone to wear St. Patrick's Day themed attire.
