The Macklind Avenue Mile –
St. Louis' Only Downhill Mile
This Fourth of July, come out and sprint, stroll or swagger the fastest – and most fun – race in the St. Louis area.
Big River Running Company invites you to join us in celebrating Independence Day by running in... the second annual Macklind Avenue Mile. The race starts at the South City YMCA and barrels down Macklind Ave. to Devonshire, losing a total of 118 feet in the process. Last year’s race was a huge success and this year is going to be even bigger and better!
So bring out the family and set a PR, meet some new people and have a blast. After all, it's only a mile!
