SPONSORED POST: The Great Chase from GO! St. Louis® is a race where everyone has a shot at the win. Forget the usual “everyone starts together” race. This is a chase, a hunt, and a finish-line showdown all rolled into one.

Your race doesn’t start when the gun goes off… it starts when your turn comes. Using official, calculated age-grading tables, we’ll set your start time based on your age and gender. But no matter when you start, everyone has the same goal: — chase down anyone in front of them before the finish line!

Ready for a fresh twist on a classic road race? Join us for The Great Chase!

This isn’t your standard road race — it’s a chase to the finish. Using official age-grading calculations, your start time is set by your age and gender. That means no matter when you start, everyone has a fair shot at the win.

And because it’s a GO! St. Louis event, you’ll get:

✨ Top-quality race experience
✨ On-course support
✨ Awesome swag worth chasing

So the only question is: will you be doing the chasing… or the one being chased?

📅 November 16, 2025
📍 Frontier Park, St. Charles

Registrations will be limited for this first-year event — sign up now and be part of the chase!

Hanging on the side of a cliff with nothing but a rope to prevent you from plummeting 30 feet to solid ground doesn’t seem like the ideal place to find your zen.

And honestly, it’s not . . . until it is.

This is something I was reminded of recently when I accompanied a veterans group, VA St. Louis Health Care System, as they worked to combine climbing with mindfulness and meditation.

“Climbing is inherently a mindful activity,” explains Devorah Ginn, a psychologist with VA St. Louis and leader of Grounded in the Heights, a mindfulness-based therapeutic rock climbing program.
