On September 11th, many people will be thinking about the attacks, and the way it has changed the world. In St Louis, there will be a March To The Arch to honor all those fallen Americans.
The March will start at 11AM, at the corner of Woods Mill and Clayton. The 21 mile walk will finish at the Gateway Arch in downtown St Louis.
This is the fourth year of the March, started in 2002 when a local businessman, Bo Drochelman, decided he had to take some action to remember the victims of the terrorist attack the year before.
A short video explains more about the March. Or visit the March To The Arch website for more information.

I'm not sure "grueling" would be the word to describe this. More like "WHOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAA"
Starting at 11:00 AM for 21 miles?
That's a lotta strides.
