Shamrock Run

The tradition continues! Things will look a little different this year for the 43rd annual Shamrock Run in Buffalo to benefit the Old First Ward Community Center, but if you run the race every single year, you can keep your tradition alive...

If you happen to see a leprechaun running through the streets of South Buffalo this weekend, don't bother chasing him to find his pot of gold.  He might lead you to beer however!  The Shamrock Run is this weekend.

Every year, I do that Shamrock Run down in the Old First Ward. It's always a great time, regardless of my frozen lips and hands. This weekend (March 2), the 2013 Shamrock Run was the biggest in Buffalo history, with nearly 5,600 runners. I'm usually a runner, but I got tired and decided to jog it out and make a video instead.
