25th Annual Run For Life And Learning

Celebrate a quarter-century of community spirit and support at the 25th Annual Run For Life And Learning in St. Louis, Missouri, on Saturday, June 6, 2026. This milestone event, hosted by the Friends of Birthright, offers a welcoming atmosphere for participants of all ages and abilities, featuring a chip-timed 6K run/walk, a 1-mile run/walk, and an exciting 0.25-mile youth run with FredBird®. Your participation goes beyond the finish line, as all proceeds directly benefit Birthright Counseling, St. Louis, supporting educational funding for clients in financial need and providing vital counseling services.

The scenic Creve Coeur Lake Memorial Park provides the beautiful backdrop for this meaningful event. Runners can anticipate a refreshing morning run with typical race day conditions in early June, including highs around 85F and lows around 64F, with a modest 16% chance of precipitation. The 6K race kicks off at 8:30 AM, followed by the 1-mile event at 8:40 AM, and the youth fun run at 9:15 AM.

Join fellow runners and walkers for a day of fitness, fun, and philanthropy. Packet pick-up is conveniently available the day before the race at Big River Running Company, or on race day morning at the Tremayne Shelter. Don't miss this opportunity to be part of a beloved St. Louis tradition that makes a tangible difference in the lives of many.
