SUMMARY:Athens Big Fork Trail Marathon & 17 Mile Fun Run
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the 27th annual Athens Big Fork Trail Marathon and 17 Mile Blaylock Creek Fun Run. Both events are on an “out-and-back” well marked course beginning and ending at the Big Fork Community Center\, utilizing the Athens-Big Fork trail.  Full Marathon runners will climb eight mountains twice with ~7\,000′ of cumulative gain. The event is free/donation based. A minimum $25 donation is suggested to cover our costs. All proceeds over our cost will be donated to the Big Fork community Center and the Ouachita Amateur Radio Association\, who help us keep our runners safe. \nWe will have three fully stocked aid stations. All aid stations will be fully stocked with your typical aid station fare. In addition\, each of our aid captains provide their own bougie concoctions for you to enjoy.  This event is free but you wouldn’t guess it based on the food offerings. Please bring your own cup or handheld because the race will be cupless this year.  There will be an option to purchase a post-race meal ticket. The post race meal will be catered once again by Cheryl with the Big Fork Mall (details coming soon for race swag and meal tickets via email).  Buy early because there will be no race-day meal ticket purchases and swag is pre-purchase only. \nWe encourage you to bring a chair\, blanket and other comfort items and plan to stick around to cheer in the finishers.  The community experience at the finish is one of the many things that makes this race so unique and popular. \nAwards:\nWe will have awards for overall male and female in both the full and fun runs.  We also offer unique awards to our 10 and 20 year finishers. We do not offer finish awards because this race experience is reward enough. \nAid Stations:\nMARATHON RUN:\nLittle Missouri Trailhead\nMile 3.8 Outbound & Mile 22.4 Inbound\n3:42PM Cutoff (Mile 22.4)\nBlaylock Creek West Trailhead\nMile 8.5 Outbound & Mile 17.7 Inbound\n10:30AM Cutoff (mile 8.5) for marathon runners\nTurn Around (Forest Rd B23F – Southern Trailhead)\nMile 13.1 – the turn around \n*Marathon runners may drop to the 17 mile fun run on race day. This can be a game day decision. We highly encourage all marathon runners to take a good assessment of how you are feeling when you reach Blaylock Creek (mi 8.5) and if it just isn’t your day switch to the Fun Run. \n*There is an early start option for those requiring more than 8 hours. Do NOT take this option if you are capable of finishing in the 8 hour timeframe. (Early start details will be included in race email.) \n*Due to the remote nature of this event\, there is NO SHUTTLE SERVICE with the exception of a medical emergency. You go in on your own two feet and you come out on your own two feet. Again\, this is good reason to take an honest assessment of how you are feeling when you arrive at the Blaylock Creek aid station. It can be a long and tough slog if you do not heed this warning. \n17 MILE FUN RUN:\nLittle Missouri Trailhead\nMile 3.8 Outbound \nBlaylock Creek West Trailhead – Turnaround\nMile 8.5 Outbound – Turnaround for 17 mile fun run only \nSafety/Required Gear: a hydration system (handheld or bladder) and a light source (handheld or headlamp). A windbreaker or space blanket is strongly suggested but not required. Runner safety is a high priority for us. We will have HAM radio operators at every aid station and they will be in communication with us at Net Control at all times. We also have several medical entities on stand by. It is worth taking your cell phone because runners are often able to get service on the top of some of the mountain peaks. I will provide my cell number in the December runner email. \n NOTE: This event is NOT for trail-newbies.\nIf you are not an experienced trail – or ultra-runner (or adventure racer)\, we happily invite you to one of the other UTS runs\, BUT NOT THIS ONE. This is a difficult event on a difficult trail that presents many opportunities for one to get lost\, injured\, exhausted\, or incapacitated–with sparse access for rescue.\nPlease do not be enticed into trying this run because of the difficulty warning–it is merely an honest attempt at preventing the run organizers from having to find and rescue someone ill-equipped for the event.\nA cut-off time of 10:30am (2.5 hours) will be enforced at the turn-around (half-way) point for the 17-mile run. Runners reaching that point after 10:30 must turn around (–NOT proceed on the marathon course).

SUMMARY:4th Annual Central Arkansas' Last Chance Run
DESCRIPTION:Please join local running clubs including the Arkansas Running Klub\, Arkansas Ultra Running Association\, Blue Rose Running Co.\, Cabot Country Cruisers\, Conway Running Club\, Fun Arkansas Running Club\, Little Rock Roadrunners\,  River Valley Runners\, Saline County Striders and the Spa Pacers on Saturday\, December 27th at 9 AM for the 4th Annual Central Arkansas’ Last Chance Run!  This FREE run will take place at War Memorial Park and anyone is welcome to participate! We will meet in the parking lot west of the roundabout at Fair Park Blvd and Zoo Dr.  There is limited parking within the park\, but there is plenty of overflow parking at the nearby War Memorial Stadium. \nThere will be 2.5 mile marked loop around the park that participants will be welcome to run or walk as many times as they would like!   There will also be a 1/2 mile kids run at 8:40 AM. \nDrinks and snacks will be provided after the run in a covered pavilion and there will be a number of door prizes to be given away to registered participants that are in attendance.  Many of the participating running clubs and sponsors will have tables and tents set up so you can get in your miles with old friends\, and then hang out out afterwards to make some new ones! \nWe will also be taking online donations for the Arkansas Foodbank.  We will not be accepting canned food donations this year. Donations are not required\, but are encouraged.  The participating running clubs will once again have a friendly competition to win the Last Chance Run Cup.  See more information below. \nThank you to our sponsors and friends that have helped to make this event possible: Arkansas RRCA Grand Prix\, Blue Rose Physical Therapy\, Coker Fit Photographer\, Fleet Feet Little Rock\, Garner Timing Services\, Little Rock Parks & Recreation and Rock City Running.  Special thanks to Little Rock Parks & Recreation for once again allowing us to use War Memorial Park for the event! \nPlease note that this is a “rain or shine” event with exception for unsafe inclement weather (e.g. lightning). Those who choose to participate should recognize that the suggested route will be open to the public and part of the loop will involve running along a sidewalk of a city street with vehicular traffic. Each individual is encouraged to use appropriate caution and is responsible for his or her own safety.  Additionally\, if runners choose to run outside the designated loop they need to do so at their own discretion\, as the streets around the park will be open to the public. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Last Chance Cup – Benefiting Arkansas Food Bank\n\nCurrently 1 in 6 Arkansans struggle to provide enough food for their family\, and 1 in 5 children in Arkansas are at risk for going hungry.  As the largest hunger-relief organization in the state\, The Arkansas Foodbank is the foundation in the fight against hunger. They find pathways to connect people\, resources and food to reach those in need\, providing dignity\, hope and a brighter future for all Arkansans. \nWe will once again be having a friendly competition for the Last Chance Run Cup that will culminate at midnight on December 31\, 2025.  The winning club will be determined based on the number of meals provided per club member with every $1 donated being equal to 5 meals.  In the first two years the event has raised nearly $16\,000 in donations and 2\,106 lbs of food were collected..  As a result more than 83\,000 meals were able to be provided to Arkansans because of the generosity of our running community!  Let’s continue to add to that amazing total this year! \n**Please note that we will only be doing online donations via Runsignup.  No food will be collected the day of the event. \nDonations are not required\, but are encouraged.  If you are part of a club please make any cash donations by clicking on the club name below.  If you aren’t part of a running club\, but wish to make a donation\, you can either donate on behalf of a club of your choice or visit www.arkansasfoodbank.org.

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.

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.
