🎉 Race Description / Theme

We’re back for the 2026 edition of Southwest Florida’s most festive running event—McGregor’s Kilts and Kilometers—on the Saturday before St. Patrick’s Day!

Join us at Bell Tower Shops as McGregor’s Irish Pub, presented by Worthington Realty, hosts an unforgettable 5K and 1 Mile race. This year’s celebration is bigger than ever, kicking off Lee County’s best two-day Irish festival. Expect a sea of green, spirited costumes, and non-stop fun as the festivities roll straight from the race into a full day of music, beer specials, and mouthwatering Irish fare from McGregor’s Pub—on both Saturday and Sunday (Beer'd Mile).

🏆 Race Perks & Fun

• Irish Pride: All participants are encouraged to show off their Irish pride, but those brave enough to run in a kilt will be in the running for special awards!
• Finisher Gifts: Every 5K and 1 Mile finisher will receive a commemorative Irish pint glass, shamrock socks, and a festive Irish finisher’s medal.
• Lucky Coins: Keep your eyes peeled on the course for lucky Irish coins—find one and trade it in for a free beer at McGregor’s Pub (kids get green Hawaiian punch instead).
• Festivities: Between the DJ, themed games, green sno-cones, green cotton candy, shamrock beads, and ice-cold green drinks, this is truly the ultimate Irish after-party.

Register now—this event sold out last year, and 2026 will be even bigger!
