Hope Watermelon 5K State Championship
2025-08-09 08:00 - 11:00 (America/Chicago) | Fair Park – Hope, AR, 1359 Park Dr, Hope, AR, 71801, United States
Race starts leaving Fair park and going East on Park drive. Mostly flat with a few winding turns, then heading to Elm street going back north for two blocks lining up for the long straight away on Main.
Runners continue along Main St rewarded with a small gradual downhill until near the 1.5 mile point. Main St then moves gradually back uphill and the race route continues this gradual incline after making a right turn onto 16th street until just before the 2 mile marker.
At this point the course is gradually downhill until after the turn onto Grady Street, where the route levels off. The now weary runners will take Grady north to 7th Street where a left turn is made. The route angles to the southwest onto Park Dr. The road then turns back due west for the final straightaway. It is now time for the runners to begin their finishing kicks as the 3 mile marker and the finish line back in Fair Park are finally in sight!

Ozark Enduro Lite Race 2 Centennial Park, Fayetteville
2025-07-27 | Centennial Park, S Centennial Park Ln, Fayetteville, AR, 72704, United States
Curious about Enduro Mountain Bike Racing? Not sure how an Enduro race works? Let us help you get your feet wet with the Ozark Enduro LITE Series. A short summer series of 3 beginner friendly enduro races. All rider abilities are welcome but the Ozark Enduro Lite Series is aimed at introducing new folks to the awesome sport of Enduro racing.
Enduro racing is primarily downhill timed segments, ranging anywhere from just less than a minute per stage to up to 5-6 minutes that may require some pedaling. A typical Ozark Enduro Lite race will consist of 4-6 downhill segments. Your time will start when you enter the top of a segment and will end when you reach the bottom of that segment. There will be connecting routes to transition between each segment that will not be timed. Only the segments are timed. Riders often ride with groups and make new friends while enjoying the trails during the transfers. After completing all the downhill segments, your total time will be compared with the times of other riders to see how you did.
You will be required to have a fully functional bike and a proper helmet. Full face helmets are recommended but not mandatory. Other recommended items are gloves, eye protection, knee pads, elbow pads. We also strongly encourage carrying the necessary items for minor bike repair such as tire plugs, tubes, CO2, spare chain links etc.
There will be aid stations, however, it is important to carry enough water and nutrition to last throughout the race. Typical durations will be anywhere from 2-4 hours depending on the course and each rider’s ability.
Pre Rides are available Saturday mornings 10 am -1 pm. (courses are open to public). We will be announcing a guided pre ride. Race day riders meetings are at 8:45 am. Race Start 9 am. You must finish by 12 noon. Awards about 12:30 approximately.
None of these races would be possible without volunteers. Volunteer help will be needed at every race, and we would love to make you a part of our event and give you some cool swag. There will be multiple volunteer opportunities such as helping at an aid station, course marshaling, and race setup and tear down.

FayetteHill
2025-06-28 06:30 - 14:00 | Fayetteville High School, 994 W Martin Luther King Blvd, Fayetteville, 72701, United States
4th annual! Very unofficial/FREE/non-sanctioned. Run at your own risk. No or little markings. Maybe medals. No swag. No glory. No one cares. Definitely heat. Definitely regret. Backyard party at the finish.

Mix surface course primarily trail, including Centennial, Markham and Kessler. You will cover most of the Fayetteville Traverse and then some. Leave the big lugs at home, because this course is going to be about 1/3rd pavement. Perfect party run to train for upcoming races or just to have a terrible time.

Roughly 20 miles. Unofficially you can end at smokehouse (13 miles) or start at smokehouse (7 miles), but this requires you to shuttle.
Basic aid stations and water drops. You’ll need at least 1 bottle, if not two.

If you want in, you MUST sign up as “going”. Final details and specifics will only be given to those that are registered.
