Organiser's description

Due to flooding and damages to the Burns Park and Northshore courses, we must postpone and relocate our 5K from our original June 14th date to July 19th at Two Rivers Park in Little Rock. We refunded all registrations, but invite you to register again if you are able to run with us. We apologize for the inconvenience.

For 21 years River City Ministry of Pulaski County has been running to support our goal of feeding, housing, and providing medical, dental, vision, and spiritual care for the homeless, marginalized, uninsured, and underinsured people of Central Arkansas. Come run our certified course at Two Rivers Park! If you don't want to run but would still like to support us, just sign up as a spirit runner!

Online Registration will close Thursday evening, July 17. In-person registration will be available at packet pickup and before the race.

Packet Pickup is available Friday, June 18th from 10am-6pm at Rock City Running, 11121 N Rodney Parham Rd, Ste. 37B, Little Rock or day of the race before 7:00AM at Two Rivers Park 5K Registration Table near the Finish Line.
