Continuing Gary’s legacy of service, proceeds fund higher education. Jonesboro Metro Rotary, partnering with with United Way of Northeast Arkansas have turned race proceeds into scholarships for dozens of students over the last 13 years.
One of only two trail runs available in Northeast Arkansas, the race takes place on the beautiful trails at Craighead Forest Park.
The 13th annual 5k Trail Walk/Run will have age division awards. It's a great way to bring your family, friends or co-workers together for a little friendly competition.
This year we are expanding our race to include a 10k mixed trail run! With the first half being the 5k trail, the road portion will take in the park’s “loop road” making a fast finish to those competitive runners who are looking for a chance to pit themselves against the clock and one another. Prizes for the top 3 Female and Male 10k runners. You must be able to complete the race in 1 hour and 30 minutes. All finishers recieve a medal.
We are very excited to say that we will continue our Kids Mud Run too! All finishers recieve a medal for this approximately 1 mile run.
