Cardinal Glennon Sun Run
Run for a future deserved...
Sunday, October 15, 2023
The Sun Run welcomes runners of all ages, walkers and families to come out and enjoy beautiful Forest Park in the heart of our city. The 5k run features chip-timing from Start 2 Finish St. Louis and the 1-mile offers a casual walk option. Every run / walk registrant will receive the official Sun Run t-shirt and sunglasses. If you are a past or current patient of SSM Health Cardinal Glennon, you can choose to receive the special red Sun Run t-shirt signifying you are a Glennon Kid! Shirt sizes are not guaranteed for registrations after September 21.
Check back for updates as the route and Runner’s Village entertainment and activities will be added soon. Sun Run sponsorships are available as well, click HERE for the opportunity packet.
The Sun Run 5k and 1-mile walk supports the world-class pediatric health care provided every day at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital. SSM Health Cardinal Glennon is a not-for-profit hospital providing pediatric care to communities throughout Illinois, Missouri and beyond. A leading academic medical center, designated Magnet® Hospital and Level I Pediatric Trauma Center, we offer multiple programs and services that support the overall well-being of our patients. We are committed not only to healing children today, but finding new ways to help them stay healthy in the future.
Thank you in advance for your consideration and support in making the Sun Run a big win for SSM Health Cardinal Glennon kids.
