About the Will of the Land 5k Glow Run- Paint the Cloud Green
This is an evening glow run through the lakefront and downtown streets of Saint Cloud, timed to coincide with a St. Patrick's Day street festival. The course winds through the city center, and the crowd around it skews festive, with glow gear, green costumes, and lit-up attire very much part of the atmosphere. Strollers and leashed dogs are welcome along the route.
The race ends right as a block party gets going, with live music, food, drinks, and vendors taking over downtown immediately after. Age group awards cover a wide spread, and there are special prizes for the most spirited team and best green outfit, so showing up in costume is genuinely encouraged here.
