About the race
The Shrewsbury Thrifty Fifty is a unique midwinter celebration held at Wehner Park in Saint Louis, Missouri. This untimed event offers participants three options: 50 minutes, 50 kilometers, or 50 miles of continuous movement, including running, walking, rolling, or dancing. The course is a challenging 0.66-mile loop featuring asphalt trails, concrete sidewalks, one hill, and two flat sections, with elevation gain making it notably tough.
Participants ring a big bell upon reaching their goals, and trophies are personalized for ultramarathon distances. The event fosters a festive atmosphere with decorations, music, costumes, and community spirit, providing refreshments and amenities to support all participants. Registration is free and open to all.
