Run Through Beautiful Wine Country
Drink MO Wine Run
SATURDAY APRIL 20, 2024
Join us for this magnificent 2nd annual Drink MO Wine Run in Augusta, Missouri! The runs begin in the quaint and hilly town of Augusta. After touring around the quiet, historical streets, you head down to the Katy Trail for some flat, fun miles. The 5k and 10k turn around and head back while the half marathoners will enter Klondike Park and enjoy the beautiful, wooded trails. After looping around the unique park, runners head back to amazing Augusta to finish!
Thanks to our title sponsor these wineries will be on your passport: Augusta Winery, Balducci Vineyards, Montelle Winery, Mount Pleasant Estates, part of The Hoffmann Family of Companies.
