3rd Annual Central Arkansas’ Last Chance Run

Please join local running clubs including the Arkansas Running Klub, Blue Rose Running Co., Cabot Country Cruisers, Conway Running Club, Little Rock Roadrunners,  River Valley Runners, Saline County Striders and the Spa Pacers on Saturday, December 28th at 9 AM for the 3rd Annual Central Arkansas’ Last Chance Run!  This FREE run will take place at War Memorial Park and anyone is welcome to participate! We will meet in the parking lot west of the roundabout at Fair Park Blvd and Zoo Dr.  There is limited parking within the park, but there is plenty of overflow parking at the nearby War Memorial Stadium.

There will be 2.5 mile marked loop around the park that participants will be welcome to run or walk as many times as they would like!   There will also be a 1/2 mile kids run at 8:40 AM.

Drinks and snacks will be provided after the run in a covered pavilion and there will be a number of door prizes to be given away to registered participants that are in attendance.  Many of the participating running clubs and sponsors will have tables and tents set up so you can get in your miles with old friends, and then hang out out afterwards to make some new ones!

We will also be taking online donations for the Arkansas Foodbank.  We will not be accepting canned food donations this year. Donations are not required, but are encouraged.  The participating running clubs will once again have a friendly competition to win the Last Chance Run Cup.  See more information below.

Thank you to our sponsors and friends that have helped to make this event possible: Arkansas RRCA Grand Prix, Blue Rose Physical Therapy, Chicken Salad Chick, Coker Fit Photographer, Fleet Feet Little Rock, Garner Timing Services, Little Rock Parks & Recreation, Rock City Running and 7 Brew Coffee.  Special thanks to Little Rock Parks & Recreation for once again allowing us to use War Memorial Park for the event!

Please note that this is a “rain or shine” event with exception for unsafe inclement weather (e.g. lightning). Those who choose to participate should recognize that the suggested route will be open to the public and part of the loop will involve running along a sidewalk of a city street with vehicular traffic. Each individual is encouraged to use appropriate caution and is responsible for his or her own safety.  Additionally, if runners choose to run outside the designated loop they need to do so at their own discretion, as the streets around the park will be open to the public.
