Turn an average, ordinary Thursday night into an extraordinary Adventure! Join us for the 15th Annual Trail Run Series in 2025 as we continue our efforts to make this the most fun you’ve ever had – not just at a trail run, but at ANY run… four straight weeks in a row!
The 2025 Series returns to Queeny Park in St. Louis County and will feature four different courses, all between 5k distance and a maximum of under 4.5 miles, over the first four Thursdays of August.
Plus, as usual for the Trail Run Series, we’ll give away more than $1000 worth of prizes over the course of the month, and these are the prizes up for grabs for everyone, not just the winners. You do not want to leave early at these events! Plus, you have two complimentary 4Hands beers to enjoy with a post-race barbecue! (Non-alcoholic beverages are available as well.)
Each Monday, the course for that Thursday will be announced at 3 pm. Here you’ll find some of our most popular trails over the past 10 years.
Centrally located in St. Louis County, Queeny Park offers wide-open trails and plenty of elevation changes to make this a series that should feature some great competition for the top runners and a more enjoyable experience for those just along for the jog (or walk).
Like many of the the Off-Road Racing League events, the Alpine Shop Trail Run Series is regulated by a strict number of runners we can allow on the trails according to park regulations. For 2024, we are once again working with a maximum capacity of 250 runners for this event. If you’re interested in running (and we hope you are!), please keep that in mind and register as quickly as you can to ensure a spot on this year’s roster. See the registration options below!
