SUMMARY:The Well Done Run
DESCRIPTION:The Well Done Run — a race for clean water — is an experiential 5K. During this family fun run\, participants carry an empty milk jug to the halfway mark\, fill it up with water from a creek and carry it back to the finish line to simulate what people around the world have to do daily to collect their needed water. \nWhile we do have some competitive racers\, most are not trying to set their personal best. Along the course\, you will see walkers\, runners and families with strollers. We want The Well Done Run to impact participants as they help to change the world through clean water. There are currently 771 million people around the world who lack access to safe water. We run and walk one day a year so that they don’t have to every day. \nThanks to our generous sponsors and participants over the past ten years\, we have been able to partner with Living Water International to provide 33 fresh water wells in 12 countries (Haiti\, Honduras\, Guatemala\, India\, Burkina Faso\, Liberia\, Kenya\, Zimbabwe\, Zambia\, Uganda\, Rwanda\, and Sierra Leone).

SUMMARY:Dirt Movement - Twin Mountain Gravel
DESCRIPTION:Twin Mountain Gravel\n\nA festival celebration of dirt and community. Our goal with Dirt Movement events is to create courses and experiences that are shared\, as much as possible\, for all participants. It doesn’t matter if you’re running 3 miles or riding 50 miles. We are one community with one purpose – get outside and move. \nWhat else do we all have in common? We love to eat (a lot)\, drink (beer or buch)\, and be merry (rock out to local music). \n  \n\nFormat\nChoose to bike or run the quiet backroads tucked between Springdale and Fayetteville. \nRunners at Twin Mountain Gravel will get to share the same creek crossings\, punchy climbs and tree canopies as the cyclists. \nCyclists will have the option of two course distances. Each of those distances has 2 single-track options\, allowing you to choose your own adventure based on how you feel. These variations come once you enter Lake Wedington and the Ozark National Forest. Choose one\, two\, or none of the single track sections while not veering from the courses and being separated from your friends. \n  \nOfficial Rule of 3 Training ride!!\nWe have partnered with Rule of 3 in making this the only Official training ride. Rule of 3 is almost exactly one month after Twin Mountain Gravel\, take this opportunity to hone your singletrack skills\, test out your bike setup and build your stoke! \n\n\nWhat Is Included in Registration?\nYour ticket to ride\, and run\, on some quiet Northwest Arkansas’ backroads! These scenic roads are a beautiful place to lose yourself – or find yourself. Either way\, we know you’ll love the courses. \nSwag\nThere are a lot of events in Northwest Arkansas and we appreciate you choosing to participate in ours. We want your commemorative item to be something that you’ll actually wear and will serve you well. We will have hats\, beanies\, and socks to choose from at packet pickup. You decide what you like and need most. And hey\, buy a t-shirt if you like them as much as we do. \nAid Stations and On-Route Support\nEach route will have multiple aid stations brought to you by some of our partners like The Meteor\, Rapha\, and more. In addition to the stationary aid\, you’ll find vehicles on course to help you out if things don’t go as planned. We got you. \n  \nTiming\nThe event will be timed but it isn’t a race. Runners will receive an overall time for their efforts. Cyclists will have two timed segments on their courses. One is in the second singletrack section and the second is on a gravel climb. The only award you’ll receive is from yourself knowing that you participated in a good time. \n  \nYou’re the DJ on course!\nIn your confirmation email you will receive a link to a Spotify playlist. Add songs that inspire you\, make you want to shake it\, or bring you back to earth. These tunes will be jamming on course throughout the day. It’s your event. \n  \nLive Music\nFeaturing The Meadow Makers and more coming soon. Each Dirt Movement event will have live bands from all around the region. We will be announcing the rest of the line up as we get closer! \n  \nFood and Drink\nNothing can bring a community together like a shared meal. Sitting down to connect and exchange stories of the day’s adventures over a plate of hot food and free beer from local breweries is key to a good time. \n  \nRaffle Giveaways\nWe’ll be raffling off high-quality prizes throughout the day courtesy of our sponsors. Must be present to win!

SUMMARY:Whitney's Race 2025
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.

SUMMARY:World Championship Running of the Tubs
DESCRIPTION:For over a century\, visitors from all over the world have flocked to Hot Springs National Park\, Arkansas to bathe in our thermal waters. But what happens when you take a bathtub and put it on wheels? The Stueart Pennington World Championship Running of the Tubs\, that’s what happens! This chaotic celebration of Hot Springs’ spa history is a town favorite! \nTo celebrate Hot Springs’ classic motto “We Bathe the World” teams from all over get their best bathtubs all dolled up to bring to Hot Springs. But whose tub has the stuff? Four team members (the bath attendants) must push their bathtubs through the heart of the city\, the Historic Bathhouse Row\, while the team captain sits in the bathtub and steers. Throughout the course\, teams will face various obstacles along the way\, while dressed in elaborate costumes in hopes to become The World Champion Tub Runners – a sought out title\, obviously. \nThe bathtub must be full of water at the start of the race and have at least 10 gallons of water left in the tub at the finish line. If that isn’t hard enough\, each bath attendant must carry one of 4 items (bar of soap\, bath mat\, loofah mitt\, and bath towel) throughout the entire race and present all items at the end of the race. Here’s a fun twist\, the judges (sporting bathrobes and clipboards) are encouraged to make up new rules on the spot! Keeping everybody on their toes! \nBut don’t worry\, everybody gets to be a part of the fun. The crowd always comes prepared to spray competitors with water throughout the entire race\, in hopes to slow down\, distract\, or just annoy racers. \nParticipants can choose to compete in three different divisions: traditional (cast-iron tubs)\, modified (fiberglass/plastic tubs)\, or stock (reserved for nonprofits tubs are provided) Each tub and team must meet the qualifications to compete. \nIf that’s not convincing enough\, just wait until you see the annual Battle of the Badge: Hot Springs Police Department vs. Hot Springs Fire Department. Trust us\, they take this very seriously. You won’t want to miss witnessing and participating in this wild summer event… so don’t! \nFor more information call 501-321-2277 or email ahampo@hotsprings.org.
