Run for Webster

Benefitting the Webster Groves School District Foundation
We are THRILLED to once again be holding the Run for Webster! Both the 5k and 1 Mile Fun Run start at the Webster Groves High School, October 21st at 8:30am. The 5k route is here. Register by September 28 to be guaranteed a T-Shirt. 
We are also offering a series of virtual 5k runs, with one starting from every Webster Groves School District school, and a special Ivory Crockett Challenge 5k, starting from Ivory Crockett Park in historic North Webster. All of our activities are listed below, with dates, times, locations, and other details. Registration for all activities begins on September 1st. 
In 1974, Ivory Crockett ran the fastest 100-yard dash with manual timing of 9.0 seconds, a record that stands today. Please join the celebration of Ivory Crockett's achievements with this community-wide event. The proceeds benefit the WGSD students and staff through Foundation Grants and Ivory Crockett Scholarships.

2023 Virtual Run for Webster Routes
Ivory Crockett 5k ChallengeThis premier activity is a 5k run in historic North Webster, starting and ending at Ivory Crockett Park. This is the 'Crown Jewel' of our 5k virtual runs, as it is more challenging than the others (more hills!). We are thrilled to offer you a chance to run, walk, or stroll through historic North Webster on a route starting and ending at Ivory Crockett park! This mostly clockwise loop will take you through much of this neighborhood, with sections on Bell, Reasnor, and Almentor before a short section on Rock Hill Road. Re-enter the neighborhood and run the length of Euclid before the challenging Holland hills, down to the low point on Ravine and Lorraine Davis, before starting the mostly uphill last mile up Waymire, south on Cornell, back up Ravine, to the aptly-named Plateau. A short stint on Lithia, Ennis, and Thornton return you to Bell, to the downhill finish. 
The route is here: Ivory Crockett Challenge
