SUMMARY:TRIFEST for MS
DESCRIPTION:The Trifest for MS triathlon\, the largest triathlon in Arkansas\, draws people from all over the country to Bentonville to raise money for multiple sclerosis research. \nThe Rampy MS Research Foundation hosts the event and each year the race raises almost $100\,000 towards multiple sclerosis research in Arkansas at UAMS\, Northwestern University in Chicago and University of California at San Francisco (UCSF). Since 2012\, the Trifest for MS and other foundation activities have raised close to $900\,000. \n“Most people don’t realize research doctors actually have to raise a lot of money themselves to fund their research\,” race founder Scott Rampy told Fox 24 News. “So we would rather keep scientists in their lab coats studying the disease and figuring out how to cure it versus raising money for their research.” \nHis wife\, Jo Rampy was diagnosed with the disease about 20 years ago. She said the organization is a good way to show other people living with the condition\, that they’re not alone. \n“This illness is progressive\,” Jo Rampy said. “We can get lost in that progressiveness. But we don’t. We take our energy and our time\, and we place it into a cause that can help others.” \n*The events in 2025 will not be USA Triathlon Sanctioned due to the participant one day fee increasing to $21. Instead there is a $7 race insurance charge added during checkout. \nTrifest for MS features a para triathlete division in all the youth events\, and the super sprint distances. Simply register for your race distance and choose the option during registration that you are a para athlete.

SUMMARY:99 Miles of Bad Road
DESCRIPTION:99 Miles of Bad Road is a gravel bicycle race starting and ending in Hardy\, Arkansas.  Expect every road surface type\, with roughly 80% being unpaved.  Don’t let the elevation profile of the GPX fool you – Garmin devices have picked up 100 feet or more of elevation gain per mile. These are relentless rolling hills with an occasional punchy climb or sketchy descent.  Everything from mud\, dirt\, gravel\, concrete bridges\, clay\, crushed limestone\, creek rocks\, broken pavement\, and more.  This route earns it’s name. \nAll finishers will receive a cool memento! Top 3 in each Category will receive awards. Overall winner will receive a unique custom award. \nOh\, and we also have a 199 Mile route option… \nCheck the website and Facebook regularly for updates! \n————– \n-Both distances of this race are loop routes that start and end at Loberg Park in Hardy\, Arkansas.  Camping is available at the campground next door to the park.  We have nothing to do with that\, you’ll have to reserve with them here if you wish to camp: https://www.campspot.com/park/hardy-campground-rv-park \n-Unless there are tornadoes\, large hail\, or extreme thunderstorms the day of the race\, we will not cancel.  Put your big boy/girl pants on\, and ride! \n-There will be some water drops and aid stations along the way\, as well as a drop-bag option for the 199’ers. We will update the Ride With GPS route maps to reflect the locations closer to race day. \n-You are solely responsible for your own safety. We will however require a headlight\, flashlight\, or headlamp\, a whistle/horn\, at least 2L of water capacity\, and an emergency blanket/bivy\, and either a phone\, GPS\, or Bicycle computer. \n– We will make no claim as to whether the course will be marked or not. You are responsible for studying the route maps and navigating.  That’s half the fun!

SUMMARY:Newton County Brutality
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Newton County Mentality\nThree Days of Bikes and Community\nFriday:\nWe’ll start things off on Friday afternoon with a 3-4 mile time trial that stays within the canyon walls\, ripping around on the gravel and world-class singletrack at Horseshoe Canyon Ranch (HCR). You’ll choose your bike\, but choose wisely cause you have to use that bike on Saturday and Sunday too. Finish the day with a meal in the Lodge Restaurant\, a campfire with friends\, and a good night’s rest in the cool fall temperatures. \nSaturday:\nThe big day — you’ll set out to tackle the best\, and hardest gravel riding in the state of Arkansas. This is backcountry gravel at its finest: big climbs\, fast and technical descents\, remote roads\, and the best views that the Ozark Mountains have to offer (remember\, it’s peak fall foliage). You’ll choose between 65- and 40-mile categories\, each expecting around 9\,000 and 5\,000 feet of climbing\, respectively.\nReturn to the ranch tired and empty\, then fill your bellies with a huge helping at the Lodge Restaurant (they call it “adventure nutrition meets local tradition”). Live music will ensue in the field below the lodge\, and although you’ll likely be cracked from the day of pedaling you’ll want to dance the night away with drinks in hand. And it’ll be ok cause the next day’s challenge plays on the word “fun\,” not “difficult.” \nSunday:\nGrab your friends (or enemies)\, take your clue card\, and adventure around the ranch on your bike\, completing challenges in a scavenger hunt-style format. CHILL PACE – WE AIN’T TIMING YOU! Bring your proof of completion back to the Trading Post\, and you’ve conquered the most famous stage farce on the planet. Awards will be given\, laughs will be had\, and then tents will be packed up.

SUMMARY:13th Annual Omega Prostate Cancer Awareness 5K Run/Walk
DESCRIPTION:The 13th Annual Omega Prostate/Colon Cancer Awareness 5K Run/ Walk is a race event for which all the proceeds are donated in support of The Arkansas Prostate Cancer Foundation\, American Cancer Society and scholarships for High School students. \nWe are grateful for the continued opportunity to raise money to help these two organization and continue to provide scholarships to deserving high school students.  With  the support of the community\, last year we increased our participants to over 267 runners and walkers and we were able to raise $5\,715.62 above expenses that has been distributed to support the Arkansas Prostate Cancer Foundation\, the American Cancer Society and scholarships for deserving high school students through the Omegas of Greater Little Rock\, Incorporated non- profit corporation.  These organizations greatly appreciate the support that you gave to last year’s event. \nToo many men will hear the words “You have prostate cancer” in this calendar year. Our goal is to increase the recognition\, discussion\, education\, and promotion of yearly screenings for prostate and Colon cancer. According to the latest prostate cancer statistics from the National Cancer Institute\, about 240\,000 men will receive a diagnosis of prostate cancer\, and about 33\,000 men will die of the disease. Overall\, about 17%\, or 1 in 6 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime.  More than 2.5 million men in America are now living with a diagnosis of prostate cancer. Reports show that prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths among men in the United States\, accounting for about 11% of cancer related deaths in men.  Colon Cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death in men and women combined in the United States.  The American Cancer Society estimates that this year 136\,830 people will be diagnosed and 50\,310 will die from this disease. \nThank you in advance for your continued support to help us knock out Prostate and Colon cancer!
