An old favorite 3-mile run returns to Pleasant Ridge on March 9



On Sunday, March 9, at 1 p.m., runners and walkers will once again take to the streets of Pleasant Ridge in the Run through the Ridge or the “PR3.”  The event is being produced by the Pleasant Ridge Runners with sponsorship support from the Pleasant Ridge Development Corporation (PRDC), the Coffee Exchange of Pleasant Ridge, and Molly Malone’s Irish Pub.   

The 3-mile course follows the old Molly Malone's Gaelic Gallop route and, even older, the Run to the Dubliner route, with which many Cincinnati runners are familiar.   

The PR3 is an out-and-back course starting near the corner of Ridge and Woodsfield, winding along Grand Vista, and then finishing at Molly Malone’s.   

The post-race party will start at 1:30 p.m. with live music, food, non-alcoholic beverages, and beer (for those 21+ with proper ID).  This event will be a great kickoff to the St. Patrick’s Day celebrations in Pleasant Ridge!
