From the organizers
The Leprechaun Chase powered by BlueCross BlueShield Nebraska isn’t just a 10K with kilt-wearing bagpipers—this is a chase of lads versus lasses. The race kicks off with the lasses in the first wave, followed by the lads (5½ minutes later.) Whoever crosses the finish line first wins a FREE prize for their gender.
That's right, at the Green Beer After Party everyone gets a FREE green beer. The losing gender can toast to the overall winner who gets crowned with the coveted green jacket.
Who will it be this year? The pot o’ gold is in your court.
