The St. Patrick's Day Classic is an endurance event held alongside the annual St. Patrick's Day Parade on Metairie Road. Participants can enjoy running or walking and have the opportunity to qualify for the CCC10K seeded corral. All participants receive a timed race bib, a commemorative t-shirt, and access to local bar specials. A post-race party at Winston’s Pub & Patio Bar features food and drinks. Awards are given to the top male and female finishers, including free CCC10K registration. Specific finishing times can secure a seeded position in the upcoming CCC10K event.
