About the ShITR - Shivery Icy Trail Run - 1 MILE
The course runs around Mallard Lake in Creve Coeur Park, mixing paved paths with non-technical dirt trails through winter woods. Shorter distances stay close to the lake; longer ones push out into other parts of the park. The footing is manageable, and the scenery is quiet and open in a way that only shows up once the leaves are down.
Hot drinks and live music are waiting at the finish, which takes some of the edge off a cold morning. The race benefits the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation, so the post-race crowd tends to have a reason to linger beyond just catching their breath.
