The 11th Annual Bear Creek Run Half Marathon will be held on Saturday, Oct. 26, 2024!
The Bear Creek Run is a favorite race in Mid-Missouri. Runners and walkers from all over the state and far beyond have come to love the scenic course along the Bear Creek Trail and the encouraging volunteers, great race shirts, and finisher medals. The 13.1 mile course starts and finishes at Albert-Oakland Park and takes participants to Columbia's Cosmo Park and back on mostly limestone gravel trail (except for a few areas of trail and the paved run around Cosmo Park). There are aid stations (water stops) every mile to mile-and-a-half along the well-marked course.
Advance registration is required and there is a 250 participant cap on the event. Race registration is $65. Please register before Oct. 11, 2024, to be guaranteed your requested shirt size.
