Please join us on Saturday, August 17, 2024 at Kirkwood Park in St. Louis as we raise much needed funds and awareness for those impacted by epilepsy in Kansas and Missouri. This family-friendly event features a timed 5K run and 1 mile walk that attracts hundreds of enthusiastic participants each year. Both the 5K and 1 mile walk start at 7:30 a.m.

After the race and walk, we will have bubbles, snow cones, face painting, a balloon artist, and more!

Note that we will be collecting art supplies for Art4Epilepsy at the race.  We will have a collection bin for new art supplies that Art4Epilepsy will be donating to kids in Epilepsy Monitoring Units in St. Louis.

If you register on or before August 2nd at 5:00 p.m. you will be guaranteed your shirt size. After that date, we can't guarantee you your shirt size or a current event shirt.  We will have previous event shirts as a substitute.

PACKET PICKUP will be on Friday, August 16 at Fleet Feet - Des Peres from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at 11731 Manchester Road, Des Peres, MO 63131. We strongly encourage you (especially teams) to pick up your shirts and bibs (if timed) on Friday.  If you are on a team, please coordinate pickup with your team captain.  If you are unable to pick your shirts on Friday, we will have them available for pick up before the race on Saturday at Kirkwood Park starting at 6:00 a.m.

The Epilepsy Foundation of Missouri and Kansas proudly leads the fight to overcome the challenges of living with epilepsy and to accelerate therapies to stop seizures, find cures, and save lives. Epilepsy is the fourth most common neurological disorder. In fact, 1 in 26 people will be diagnosed with epilepsy during their lifetime, and 1 in 10 people will experience a seizure during their lifetime.

Your participation in our event helps us provide services and support to the nearly 200,000 people in Missouri and Kansas living with epilepsy.
