SUMMARY:Ouachita Triple Crown
DESCRIPTION:We are stoked to partner with the city of Hot Springs to make The Ouachita Triple Crown part of the Gudrun Northwoods Festival this year!! Participants are encouraged to join in on the rest of the Gudrun activities and parties\, it is a great time in the Northwoods! \nThe Ouachita Triple Crown route was first mapped by Kenny Williams in 2019.  He wanted to link together three International Mountain Bike Association (IMBA) Epic Trails into one epic bikepacking route.  When connected by gravel roads\, the Ouachita Trail (OT)\, the Womble Trail\, and the Lake Ouachita Vista Trail (LOViT) create a circle around Lake Ouachita. \nIMBA Epic Trails are the best of the best\, and Arkansas has more of them that any other state.  The Ouachita Mountains\, composed of rocky ridges and narrow\, spring cooled valleys\, is the perfect landscape for an IMBA Epic Trail.  The mountains are wild\, beautiful\, and rugged. \nPARTICIPANTS MUST SIGN UP WITH TRACKLEADERS FOR THE EVENT! \nOctober 1st will be the last day for full registration for anyone that needs to withdraw. An event shirt or requested shirt size will only be promised for participants registered by October 20th.

SUMMARY:Birdeye | Night Owl
DESCRIPTION:Birdeye Gravel expands its weekend festivities with this unique challenge dubbed the Night Owl! Two distance options\, one epic endeavor.  \nPicture this: sunset is approaching\, a live band is ready to send you off\, and you’re surrounded by a group of enthusiastic riders ready to take on the night. There will be a few stashed aid stations along the way but the ethos of the ride is a self-supported adventure. Enjoy comradery\, duke it out with anyone that wants to push the pace\, or settle into your own rhythm and enjoy a solo mission. Complete the route and add your name to the list of finishers. We’ll be scheming up some prizes to sweeten the deal. \nWhether your first proper night ride\, a training opportunity for something in the ultra or bikepacking realm\, or just a way to shake things up… we’re here to stoke the fire! \nPlease note – this will not have a rolling SAG. This is a do-it-yourself ride! If you need a bailout… call a significant other\, bestie\, or family member. We’ll send out a sweep beginning at 10AM on Saturday. \nPreliminary Routes: \nhttps://ridewithgps.com/collections/2932778 \nSchedule:  \nFriday 11/8\n• 4:30pm – Rider Meeting\n• 5pm – Start \nSaturday 11/9 \n• 8am – Breakfast\n• 10am-4pm – Farm fun (yard games\, yoga\, & more!) \n• 5pm – Tacos & tamales – San Judas\n• Music – Curtis Scott & Deion James followed by Amy LaVere & Will Sexton \n  \nBuilding Community \nstudioDRIFT’s mission aims to help communities in the Delta through placemaking and outdoor recreation. To this end we offer free event participation for marginalized and underprivileged people. If you would like to apply for a scholarship and attend this event for free\, please be in touch. \nWith an emphasis on connectivity\, placemaking\, and the outdoors\, studioDRIFT is also helping fellow Arkansans strengthen their community and landscape through bike and water trails\, ecological and adventure tourism\, cultural arts and music\, and sustainable food systems.  \nSigning up for this ride contributes to the mission of studioDRIFT!

SUMMARY:Whitney's Race 2024
DESCRIPTION:Whitney’s Race is not just Whitney’s race. It is a race against time for those yet to be afflicted with pancreatic cancer\, the most deadly cancer. It is Time To Cure® pancreatic cancer. Whitney’s Time To Cure® has passed. Whitney Marsh perished at age 41\, November 1\, 2018\, ten months after diagnosis with pancreatic cancer. Five-year survival from pancreatic cancer stands at 6-9% showing little to no improvement in survival in the past 50 years despite vast medical advances across almost all other cancers. Pancreatic cancer is currently the number two cancer killer in 2020 and researchers estimate pancreatic cancer will be the number one by 2030. Diagnosis is often late begetting the need for local medical practitioner education as well as research for improved diagnostic testing and imaging. Once a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer has been made treatment usually involves chemotherapy with or without radiation therapy followed by curative intent surgery followed by more chemotherapy. Whitney was scheduled for surgery\, but the day before surgery a CT scan showed cancer had spread. She died within 4 months of the CT scan while re-starting chemotherapy and running 8-10 miles or biking 30-40 miles per day. Even the super-healthy are no match. Better pre-operative treatment options are the future. Whitney’s Race will fund the Whitney Marsh Foundation Inc for local education and national research for Pancreatic Cancer. Funds will be apportioned locally and the remainder with well respected national cancer research institutes such as MD Anderson. Whitney’s Race is a race against time. It is Time To Cure® pancreatic cancer. \nWhitney’s Race day at the Marshals Museum will be a great day of running\, racing\, eating\, and music. Race for your best time and afterward hang out for a great time. Bring yourself and friends to race. It is a day for family and friends who run or not. If you don’t want to race\, come anyway. If you can’t come\, consider a donation anytime!  A brighter future for pancreatic cancer starts with YOU.
