Home About Big River Racing

Mission Statement

Big River Racing is about running in its purest form. We encompass racing and pushing one’s limits, accepting anyone who shares our passion for running. The team is a dedicated group of like-minded individuals who train, race and socialize with the goal of improving the St. Louis running community through advocacy, openness and volunteerism. The team exists to support runners from post-collegiate athletes to those relatively new to the sport and anyone in between.

Team Goals

  • Create more opportunities for the runners of the Big River community to train and race together as a team.
  • Encourage socializing as a team through designated monthly group runs, happy hours, monthly “tailgate” races and volunteer opportunities.
  • Be good stewards of the running community through volunteering, fostering new runner development and giving post-collegiates a consistent team setting to continue chasing PRs.

Team Expectations

Once you are a member of Big River Racing (see How to Join for details), the expectations are as follows:

  • Proudly wear your Big River Racing singlet when racing!
  • Attend group training opportunities as your schedule allows (at least 5 a year).
  • Participate in designated monthly team races (at least 2 a year).
  • Act in a manner that positively reflects the Big River brand and mission both on and off the race course.
