Welcome to the Trot Thru the Woods
The Trot Thru the Woods is an annual 5k and fun run through beautiful Warson Woods residential streets. It is put on by the Warson Woods Running Club. In 2018, we were able to donate net proceeds of $1,000 to the Foster & Adoptive Care Coalition to assist in their efforts in creating permanency in foster children’s lives by recruiting and supporting foster and adoptive families in the metropolitan St. Louis region. In 2019, net proceeds will be donated to the World Pediatric Project, which heals critically ill children and builds healthcare capacity in the world.
Come Join Us!
We put on one of the most fun races in town. The 5k is priced right and the fun run is free if you sign up by the end of October! We have great swag, free hot chocolate, free pictures of the race and, of course, the the famous running turkey!
This year's race will be held on Saturday November 23rd at Rohan Woods School (1515 Bennett Ave, 63122). The 5k starts at 8:00 A.M. sharp followed by the fun run at 9:00.
