She Dreams Bigger - Women's Run

SATURDAY, October 3, 2026

Some miles change more than your fitness.

Join us for a women's only morning of movement, connection, and adventure on the beautiful Fee Fee Greenway, one of St. Louis' best-kept secrets. Surrounded by nature and a community of inspiring women, you'll discover that this is more than a finish line—it's a reminder of what you're capable of.

Bring a friend, your daughter, your mom, your sister—or come on your own. You'll leave with more than a medal. You'll leave with fresh perspective, new connections, and the reminder that your biggest adventures are still ahead.

Dream bigger. Move boldly. Discover what you're capable of.
