The Course Breakdown
You’ll start on the J.B. Hunt Park Loop before crossing onto the Razorback Greenway. The route keeps things varied with park trails and greenway views before looping back to the finish line. It’s a solid mix of terrain that keeps you moving without getting repetitive.
Cross the finish line and you’ll walk away with a finisher’s medal and race T-shirt.
