Hull of a Race

                           2023 marks the 17th annual Hull of a Race

2022 was a bittersweet year for Hull of a Race. The race, held in August, was a huge success with $14,000 raised and donated to the St. Louis Chapter of the American Parkinson’s Disease Association and with a record number of runners, 204, participating in the race. However, in October, one of the founders of Hull of a Race, Marilyn White, passed away from Parkinson’s disease.
