There won’t be any ice or snow, and the weather will be a lot warmer for runners and walkers when the first Gold Rush 5K is held in Pittsburgh to support veterans.

The Yuengling Gold Rush 5K Run/Walk race will begin at 9 a.m. June 30 at Stage AE on Pittsburgh’s North Shore. It will end at the same location.

The race will benefit Team Red, White and Blue, a Tampa, Fla.-based nonprofit dedicated to enriching the lives of veterans through social and physical activity. The organization has a Pittsburgh chapter.

The race — which is limited to 2,500 participants — is sponsored by CK Running, LLC of Elmhurst, Ill., and Yuengling, a brewery in Pottsville.

All participants will receive a race shirt. Those who are at least age 21 will get a free can of Yuengling Golden Pilsner.

Participants can register online at www.yuenglinggoldrush.com. The cost is $42 plus an online processing fee.
