In celebration of its 10th annual United Way 5-K event, UniGroup has expanded the event to include a 10-K race.

The races will take place at 8:30 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 8. All proceeds benefit the United Way of Greater St. Louis. The run is hosted by UniGroup, the parent company of United Van Lines, Mayflower and other transportation-related companies.

Details of the United Way 5-K and 10-K are:

• Adult registration for both the run and walk is $25. The first 500 adults to register receive a T-shirt.

• The courses will begin on the UniGroup campus at One Premier Drive in Fenton. The 5-K race will continue through Fenton city streets and Fenton City Park. The 10-K race will continue along the Meramec River and through Unger Park.
