Norfork, AR 5K

Registration closes: Thu, May 16 @ 11:59 PM CT

Race Headquarters

The event starts and finishes at the beautiful Norfork River Resort. We'll be using the Pavilion for packet-pickup. Directions can be found by clicking on the directions icon from this landing page. The resort would be a great basecamp if you're choosing to spend the weekend and enjoy all that the area has to offer...fishing, hiking, cycling, cavern tours and more!

Course Preview

The race course leaves from the Resort and follows Scenic River Ridge Road and is an Out-N-Back style. We'll have a manned aid station set up at the turn around with Water, Skratch, and various treats. This is great for runners, walkers and cyclist...we even had someone use roller blades once. With only 25ft of elevation gain it offers a perfect opportunity to snag that PR!

Fundraising Efforts

All proceeds from this event will go to support area recreational opportunities and the City of Norfork Parks & Recreation. Our first project is a beautification effort at a local park.

If you are interested in sponsoring or donating but don't wish to participate in the 5K, please reach out to Jake Anderson at Norfork Adventure Supply (870) 726-4845

Race Swag

With the goal of raising as much funds for the cause we are limiting the amount of costly giveaways. All finisher's will get a custom magnet with the race logo along with some other goodies that we can drum up.

Shirts are available for pre-purchase at checkout and we'll have a few more available at packet pickup.

Overall awards will be provided from local businesses and are sure to please.
