The 1-mile course will be on the trail with a turnaround point halfway. We ask that you please try to run on the right side of the trail as to not impede those who are returning to the finish.

SUMMARY:Toad Suck Daze 10k/5k Run and Tadpole Trot
DESCRIPTION:We are so excited to announce the 43rd Annual Toad Suck Daze 10k and 5k Race for the Kiwanis Club of Conway. We would also like to thank our co-presenting sponsor for this year’s race\, Centennial Bank and Conway Regional Health Systems! \nThe Tadpole Trot\, Presented by Centennial Bank and Conway Regional Health Systems will take place May 2nd at 5:45 pm at the Young-Wise Memorial Stadium at Hendrix College.  This will be a short race and is for kids ages 3-10 years old.  Prizes and t-shirts are available! \nThe Toad Suck Daze 10k Race was started by the Conway Kiwanis Club in 1982 and run in conjunction with the then-new Toad Suck Daze Festival.

In 1986\, the Conway Kiwanis Club approached Regions Bank\, and the two races were combined.  The annual Toad Suck Daze Run is held in memory of Randy Baker\, with proceeds benefiting non-profit agencies supporting children in the Faulkner County community.  Over the years\, the race has raised more than $500\,000 for nonprofit organizations. As a result of last year’s success\, The Conway Kiwanis Club presented checks totaling more than $44\,500 to a variety of local non-profits that have programs for children\, including Compass Academy\, CSI Youth\, Boys & Girls Club of Faulkner County\, Children’s Advocacy Alliance\, Community Connections\, Haven\, Milestone Services\, Inc.\, Main Stage Education Series at Reynolds Performance Hall\, Deliver Hope and the Jerry Cooper Sensory Play Trail at Laurel Park.  The Run strives to increase its contributions to the Faulkner County community each year. \nOnline registration will be cut off Friday\, May 2nd at 11:00 am.  Runners can still register for the race by filling out paper registration forms at: \n-Conway Regional Fitness Center\, May 2\, 2024 – 12 pm – 6 pm \n-Day of Race\, Registration table Conway High School Field House – 6:00 am – 7:30 am \nHope to see you all there!

Bicycles with drop handlebars are standard equipment for cyclocross\, but flat bars (with no forward or upward extensions) are allowed. Gravel bikes can be used for cyclocross races\,  Drop handlebars are required at USA Cycling Cyclocross National. \nTire Width Rules for Cyclocross\nThe condensed version is that any tire width is allowed for local USA Cycling-permitted cyclocross races. \nPoints for the Series  \nPoints for each race will be awarded based on how many participants come and race.

SUMMARY:Central Arkansas Cyclocross - Race 1
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Central Arkansas Cyclocross Series “CACS” \nThe atmosphere of cyclocross racing is what draws many racers and fans to the sport. Cyclocross is very spectator friendly with the courses set up in local parks and the short races happening at high speeds. Although the racing can be highly competitive on the course\, there’s a festival environment outside the course tape. \nWhat is Cyclocross?\nCyclocross combines elements of road cycling\, mountain biking\, and steeplechase. Races are relatively short (20-60 minutes)\, held on 2.5- to 3.5-kilometer closed circuit courses in parks and open spaces. Riders race over varying amounts of pavement\, grass\, dirt\, and sand. \nCan I use a mountain bike or gravel bike for cyclocross? \nAlmost any standard bicycle with two wheels can be used for cyclocross at local cyclocross races. Bicycles with drop handlebars are standard equipment for cyclocross\, but flat bars (with no forward or upward extensions) are allowed. Gravel bikes can be used for cyclocross races\,  Drop handlebars are required at USA Cycling Cyclocross National. \nTire Width Rules for Cyclocross\nThe condensed version is that any tire width is allowed for local USA Cycling-permitted cyclocross races. \nPoints for the Series\nPoints for each race will be awarded based on how many participants come and the race. The winner of the series will be awarded

SUMMARY:Arkansas NICA Race 2 - Mid Season Classic
DESCRIPTION:One of the great things about a NICA League\, which separates us from other youth cycling development programs\, is we produce our own youth-specific events. This means we pick out race venues and work directly with landowners and managers to produce the highest quality youth development racecourses and events. The student-athletes get a stage of their own\, away from adult competitions\, and we strive for safety and fun above all other factors. \nThe Arkansas League will produce a total of 7 events in 2024.  On our Time Trial weekend we will have a special Race Clinic Event on that Saturday aimed at getting more girls on bikes in addition to allowing newer riders have a practice race\, attend a race clinic and do their first mass start.  Followed by a Prelude Time Trial and 4 races in the fall.  New for 2024 we have 2 Regions.  Plains (Central\, South and NE Arkansas) and Plateaus (NWA and OK generally).    The competitive racing will consist of 2 regional events\, and 2 All league Events.   We will crown regional champions at the end of Race 3 based of total points and also have a true “winner take all” State Championship Event at Race 4.  Athletes must have attended atleast 2 prior races to be eligible to win the State Championship.
