Only participants who come by during Early Packet Pick-Up dates will receive a parking pass for Yorba Regional Park.

SAFETY

While strollers, wheelchairs and service dogs are permitted, for guest safety, we ask these groups to start at the back of the lineup for your race.  Bikes, rollerblades, and skateboards are not allowed in the Expo areas or race course at any time.  All other dogs must be on a leash and owners are responsible for picking up after their pets (per park regulations).

EVENT CONDITIONS

The ShamRock ‘n Run event will be held rain or shine.  However, safety is of the utmost concern.  In the event that weather conditions pose a threat, the race and/or government officials reserve the right to postpone or cancel the event or alter the course as deemed necessary.  Unfortunately, should this occur, registration fees cannot be refunded if unsafe weather cancels the race.
