Grafton Lucky 5K Run/Walk 2027

The Grafton Lucky 5K Run/Walk is a St. Patrick's Day 5K in downtown Grafton, Wisconsin, about 30 minutes north of Milwaukee. It starts and finishes downtown, begins at 9:00 a.m., and limits the field to 600 runners and walkers. The event is chip-timed and family-friendly: kids 12 and under have a lower entry price, and strollers are permitted. The course is flat and fast, suitable for those aiming for a quick 5K and for walkers seeking a relaxed morning. Every participant receives a long-sleeve tech top and a finisher medal. The post-race activities include food, music, and complimentary green beer from The Stillery in Grafton. Awards are presented to overall finishers, age-group runners, and the Most Festive Dressed, highlighting the race's local character.
