SUMMARY:36 Hours of Black Bear
DESCRIPTION:This is a free\, donation based “fun run” put on by RD N. Johnson and Assistant RD S. Turner. This is basically like any training run you would do on your own. Only difference\, we’re feeding you. A donation jar to cover food and drinks will be at the start/finish or you can email us at haremountain100@gmail.com if you want to donate when you sign up.\nRace date and time:\nThe 36 Hours of Black Bear starts at 9:20am\, the 15 miler starts at 9am.\nA loop course on the Shores Lake/White Rock spur of the Ozark Highlands Trail\, starting and finishing at Shores Lake Recreation Area. It is all on trail.\nEach loop is approximately 15 miles and over 3500 feet of elevation gain (so the 15 miler is 15 with 3500). If someone can do 8 loops in 36 hours\, that’s ~ 120 miles and over 28\,000 feet of elevation gain.\nAt the start/finish at Shores Lake we will have bonfires\, camping\, food\, beverages and a really good time.\nThis year\, the event is limited to 15 runners (combined distances).\nThere is only one winner of the 36 Hours. \nDetails\nRunners will alternate directions with each loop. The run will begin with a CW loop (15 milers do one CW loop). The next loop will be CCW. Loop 3 CW and so on. On the first lap\, runners will most likely do the White Rock Rim trail. If this is something we make part of the course\, we will ask that you not most of the rim trail. It is on a bluff.\nAll other loops will just be to the OHT TH parking at the top and turn around.\nWe’ll have a couple of tents and food at Shores Lake. I suggest you camp there and have all of the gear and your favorite foods too. Just in case we might not have your tummy’s favorite.\nWe’ll have quesadillas\, avocados\, peanut butter\, maybe pizza\, sodas\, tailwind\, chips\, turkey burgers\, veggie burgers\, etc. We will not have gels for this event.\nPlease bring lots of light. We would like for you to have 2 sources on you if you are doing night loops.\nYou should prepare for warm or cold daytime temps and chilly nighttime temps. We suggest blister kits\, rain gear\, anti chafing cream\, extra shoes\, etc.\nThere will be one major aid station at the start/finish at Shores Lake. Runners will retrieve something at the TH at White Rock on every loop they complete. Fifteen milers will do the same. There are 2 county road crossings\, one on the West side and one on the East. There will be light aid at those intersections. As in\, water. We cannot leave food unattended like we had panned due to recent bear activity.\nThe start/finish at Shores Lake has camping.\nThis loop is the final portion of the Hare Mountain 100\, 50 and 60k. So\, a great little taste of the course if you are looking to run HM this fall.

SUMMARY:First Sunday Ride
DESCRIPTION:The First Sunday Ride is a simple idea. Frank Webber of Shift Modern Cyclery and Joe Jacobs of ArkansasOutside.com wanted to carve out time each month to enjoy the local trails with friends. Instead of keeping it to themselves\, they decided to open the invite to anyone who wants to join. This is a casual friends ride where new faces are welcome\, good conversations happen\, and the goal is to have fun on the dirt. \nEach month\, riders come together to explore local singletrack\, meet fellow riders\, and get to know the trails that make central Arkansas such a great place to ride. Frank and Joe love seeing new people show up\, so if you are looking for a welcoming group to ride with\, this is your chance. \nThe first ride will meet at the Equestrian Trailhead Parking Lot in Burns Park at 1 pm on Sunday\, December 7\, 2025. If the turnout is large\, riders will split into A\, B\, and C groups so everyone can find the pace and style of ride that fits. Eat before you arrive\, bring your helmet\, and be ready to roll right at 1 pm. \nIf you have not tried the new and rebuilt trails at Burns Park\, this is the perfect time to discover them. If you already know the system\, then you know how much fun is waiting. Come ride\, make new friends\, and start your month with a good time on the trail. \nEach rider is responsible for themselves on this ride.
