SouthArk Outdoor Expo Hero 5k Run/Walk Run for the Heroes

September 7, 2024 @ 8:00 am - 11:00 am

SouthArk Outdoor Expo Hero 5k Run/Walk Run for the Heroes
2025 Bike City Fondo

Real heroes, ordinary people, extraordinary courage.

The SouthArk Outdoor Expo will once again host the Hero 5k Run/Walk sponsored by South Arkansas Regional Hospital.  Runners and walkers of all ages, abilities, and experience levels are encouraged to come out and participate in a supportive and fun 5K event that honors our military and first responders.

This race honors our local courageous heroes – healthcare professionals, military personnel, and first responders. Its purpose is to raise awareness of the sacrifices made daily by these heroes and to unite in their honor.  The community is invited to honor our hometown heroes and those who have served in the military while paying tribute to the heroes of today who are working on our frontlines.

The Hero 5k Ran/Walk grew in memory of Major Ronald Wayne Culver, who died in Iraq on May 24th, 2010. Major Culver served multiple combat deployments throughout his military career and served on countless programs and organizations in our local community. He was a true American hero who courageously sacrificed his life for our country.

This race also honors Leslie Darden, a hero & inspiration to so many in the racing world. She pushed people to be the best they could be through her steadfast encouragement, uplifting cheers, and empowering guidance!  Leslie was an alumna of SouthArk and worked in the healthcare industry for 12 years.

It is an honor for us to recognize the courageous spirit of all of our hometown heroes including healthcare professionals, firefighters, military, and law enforcement who serve and protect our community!  We wish to raise awareness of the sacrifices made daily by these heroes and unite to honor all those who have stepped up to earn the title of HERO.
