Embrace the Chill: Conquer the Icy Trail Run
ShITR - Shivering Icy Trail Run
SUNDAY, JANUARY 3, 2027
Embrace the chill and tackle the Shivering Icy Trail Run (ShITR) at the scenic Creve Coeur Park! Whether you're up for a brisk 1 mile, 5k, 10k, or a challenging half marathon, this race offers something for everyone. The courses wind around the picturesque Mallard Lake, featuring a mix of paved paths and easygoing non-technical trails. Longer distances will take runners through additional areas of the park, showcasing its natural beauty in the crisp winter air.
Finishers will be rewarded with a long sleeve shirt, hot drinks, and music to keep the post-race vibes warm. Best of all, a portion of the proceeds supports the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation - Mid-America Chapter, so you’ll be running for a great cause.
Join us for a fun, frosty adventure that will get your heart pumping and your spirit soaring!
