    While trail running shoes are not required for this race, we do recommend shoes with good traction. Old worn out shoes are probably not the best practice for anything slippery. If in need stop by Fleet Feet Little Rock for a new set of kicks White shoes are also not the best for this run...just sayin'...Luckily, Brooks will be there with trail shoes and road shoes for you to wear in the elements.
