🔥The River to River Runners don’t just show up… we put the races on.

Yeah, we bring you the Rend Lake Marathon — but that’s just part of it.

We’ve got more on the calendar, including events like the Hearts Desire 6-Hour Endurance Run — a 6-hour challenge where you rack up as many miles as you can on a fast, flat 1.3-mile loop. 

Different vibes. Different challenges. Same goal — building a stronger running community right here in Southern Illinois.

Whether you’re chasing a PR, burning calories, or just seeing how far you can go in 6 hours… we’ve got something for you.

👉 Check it out / sign up:

Run local. Support local. Be part of it.

The Hearts Desire 6-Hour Endurance Run is on Saturday May 2, 2026.
