The "Organ" Trail Run

About The Event:
Five Miles of Grass, Dirt, Rocks, Creeks, and Organ Donation Awareness!

Are you a runner looking to get off the road and try a real challenge? Were you were lucky enough to get in the Pere Marquette Endurance Trail Run in December and could use a warm up race? Maybe you just need to get a little dirt on your nice running shoes?

Proceeds:
All Proceeds from this event will be used to support Team St. Louis, a group of inspirational athletes who either:

• received a life-saving organ transplant (Recipient)
  
• gave the gift of life by donating the organs of a loved one (Donor Family)
  
• or personally donated an organ (Living Donor)
  

Team St. Louis athletes will be traveling to the 2010 NKF U.S. Transplant Games to celebrate life and promote organ donor awareness next summer.
