This year, it’s our Fifth Anniversary Beat Beethoven 5K!
Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5 in C minor generally takes about 31-35 minutes to play, depending on the conductor and orchestra. A 5K is 3.10 miles.
Our annual “Beat Beethoven 5K” is a fundraising event for Classic 107.3, the Voice for the Arts in St. Louis. Everyone who registers before the deadline will receive an event t-shirt and a finisher’s medal (plus on-air radio shout-outs if you “beat Beethoven”)! Kids under 18 receive a registration discount.
If running/walking is not for you, please consider supporting the event with a donation! Click here to donate.
