Here’s What Participants Said…
You don’t find too many 10Ks with this big of a crowd or a field - Melissa Todd, Women’s winner Kansas City, MO
First of all let me tell you what a wonderful time we had. This was definitely one of the most fun races I have participated in, and I will hopefully run in it every year. I thought it was well organized.
Loved the course this year! Traversing through Soulard on a beautiful fall morning could not have been more delightful. Also, the trip through the brewery was a very nice touch! Keep up the good work.
I enjoyed the great weather, the course, and especially the pumpkin pie trophy. Yum Yum!
