GO! St. Louis will partner with the St. Louis Cardinals by providing race management for an exciting new run for Cardinals Care, the charitable foundation of the St. Louis Cardinals. The Cardinals Care Run Home for Kids 6K event, a tribute to Stan Musial and the number six that was worn by the legendary Cardinals slugger, will take place on Sunday, August 29 at 8:06 am. The first-time race will help promote fitness and raise money for Cardinals Care. The run will start outside Busch Stadium’s Gate 3, wind along the city and finish on the field with every participant crossing home plate. This marks the second baseball-themed race GO! St. Louis has provided race assistance. More than 8,000 people participated in the inaugural Major League Baseball All-Star Charity 5K Run in July, 2009.
