2020 Race Postponed due to Covid 19
2022 Hull of a Race
The cheers - The tears
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. Marilyn had been the driving force behind Hull of a Race since its inception in 2006, doing the bulk of the work for many of those years. In 2022, Marilyn was recognized by the St. Louis Chapter of the APDA in their newsletter as a Parkinson’s Hero for her 16 years of dedication to the race and the over $100,000 raised for Parkinson’s research under her direction. Marilyn is deeply missed by her Hull of a Race Pit Crew. View more on Marilyn's devotion to this cause here.
Looking forward to the 2023 Hull of a Race
In 2023, Hull of a Race will honor and remember Marilyn and the others who have departed from Parkinson’s as well as those still fighting Parkinson’s. We will again provide stickers for runners to wear with names of people affected by Parkinson’s. Please let us know of names and addresses of those you know with Parkinson’s, so we can contact them or you about our race, stickers, and recognition. Also contact us if you would like to join our Pit Crew and help with the race. We welcome new members. We hope you will participate in Hull of a Race in 2023.
