Join the Young Friends for a summer morning fun run through the Missouri Botanical Garden.

The Garden is a cool botanical oasis in August. We invite participants of varying athletic abilities to visit early in the morning, avoid the summer heat and run!

Runners follow a recommended 5K course, but they run for the pleasure of it. In other words: no clock, no winners. All participants receive a running shirt at check-in.* Event proceeds benefit the Doris I. Schnuck Children’s Garden.

Running must stop at 9:00 a.m. when the Garden opens to the general public, but your event wristband is good for same-day admission through 5 p.m.
