US Road Running Races US Road Running races are built for runners and walkers who like friendly, low-pressure race days with just enough competition to keep things exciting. Our events are local, welcoming, and easy to jump into, whether you are chasing a PR, collecting another themed medal, working toward series points, or just getting outside with good people. Most races are small enough to feel personal but organized enough to feel official. You can expect a clear course, helpful race staff, finisher medals, results, and a relaxed community feel. Bring your fast shoes, your steady walking pace, your favorite running buddy, or your best “I signed up for this on purpose” smile. We will be glad to see you at the start line.

EMS is not stationed on site, and water stations are limited to the finish area at the end of each lap and at the race finish. Please plan for the weather, bring anything you may want between laps, and check in with race staff if you need help.

If you are seeing this you are invited to participate in my birthday celebration 5K. This is a run/walk event!!!

Race hosted by the River Valley Runners •Kicks off the 2027 Grand Prix Season! •Run on a standard 400 meter track •Grand Prix Championship Event •Two separate heats to decrease track congestion Day of race registration: $40.00 Chili and all the fixin's will be provided The first One Hour Track Run was held in 1983 as part of Grand Prix II. This run took place in Russellville at the Arkansas Tech University track. The One Hour Track Run was eliminated after one year as the Grand Prix was trimmed to a core of four races for most of the 1980's. Later incarnations of a One Hour Track Run were located in El Dorado and later Camden, Arkansas, and were a Grand Prix staple in the 1990's. After 1998, the One Hour Track Run ceased to be run until the Long Distance Running Committee decided to revive it as part of the 25th Running of the Grand Prix in 2006. Fittingly, the One Hour Track Run returned to Russellville for Grand Prix XXV, and was held at the Russellville High School Track. The course is a standard, 400 meter track. Very Flat! Aid stations every 1/4 mile! ONE HOUR TRACK RUN WILL BE AT Russellville High School, Russellville,AR 72802 ENHANCED SECURITY FROM RPD WILL BE PROVIDED DURING THE RACE AND IN THE PARKING LOTS

US Road Running Races US Road Running races are built for runners and walkers who like friendly, low-pressure race days with just enough competition to keep things exciting. Our events are local, welcoming, and easy to jump into, whether you are chasing a PR, collecting another themed medal, working toward series points, or just getting outside with good people. Most races are small enough to feel personal but organized enough to feel official. You can expect a clear course, helpful race staff, finisher medals, results, and a relaxed community feel. Bring your fast shoes, your steady walking pace, your favorite running buddy, or your best “I signed up for this on purpose” smile. We will be glad to see you at the start line. A quick race-day note: because many US Road Running events are small local races, we normally have one or two staff members at each race. EMS is not stationed on site, and water stations are limited to the finish area at the end of each lap and at the race finish. Please plan for the weather, bring anything you may want between laps, and check in with race staff if you need help.

Check-in starts at 9:30 Race starts at 10:00am RUN RARE: The Rarety 5K is more than just a race... It’s a movement. A celebration. A call to action. It’s a heartfelt and high-energy event powered by Rarety, a nonprofit organization founded by Taylor, a Class of 2026 student who has been bravely battling a rare disease for years. She leaves the National Institute of Health on Friday, 03/13/26, where they studied her body from head to toe for a week, hopefully to find a cure. This 5K honors the often unseen, unheard, and misunderstood voices of rare warriors around the world...especially young people like Taylor, whose personal journey with a rare condition became the heartbeat of this event. Taylor’s story of strength, perseverance, and faith is a testament to what it means to keep showing up, to keep fighting, and never to let a diagnosis define your destiny. RUN RARE invites people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds to walk, run, or roll in solidarity with the rare disease commun
