The St. Louis Track Club was incredibly proud to again be a part of this year's Festival of Miles, continuing our long-standing tradition of sponsoring the professional Men's Mile since the festival's inception.
Our commitment to the running community goes beyond sponsorship. Thanks to the amazing support of our members and attendees, we were able to raise an additional $260 through sales of our St. Louis Track Club swag! Every dollar from the Festival of Miles is dedicated to the "Athlete in Need" program, and this year, we were especially honored to contribute to Larry Stone's journey. Larry is not only this year's recipient but also a long-time and valued member of the St. Louis Track Club family. It's truly rewarding to see our collective efforts directly benefit someone within our own community.
The day was also filled with inspiring moments and unforgettable encounters. We had the fantastic opportunity to meet local Olympian Colleen Quigley, whose dedication and achievements are truly motivating. And, of course, it was a thrill to congratulate Craig Engels, the impressive winner of the professional men's mile!
The Festival of Miles is more than just a race; it's a celebration of athleticism, community, and giving back. We're already looking forward to next year and continuing our support for this incredible event and the athletes it champions.
