The Jim Rowland FCA River Valley Run begins and ends at The Bakery District in downtown Fort Smith, Arkansas. The race hub is located near The Bakery on 6th and 7th Streets. This FCA-organized road race offers three distances: 5k, 10k, and half marathon. Now in its 19th year, the event uses a staggered start, with all races beginning in the morning and concluding by noon. The course accommodates a broad spectrum of participants, from children aged 8-10 to runners 70 and older. Awards for first, second, and third place are given to men and women within each age group. All participants will receive a finisher's medal. Results from recent races are publicly available, and updates are posted on the event's Facebook page.

The half marathon course incorporates a 1.09-mile out-and-back segment, repeated six times. All participants have a 3 hour 30 minute time limit.

Gobbler 5K, 10K & 13.1M at Fort Smith (45) November

Turkey Trails - Fayetteville

Turkey Trails - Fayetteville is a Thanksgiving-themed running event in Fayetteville, Arkansas, with choices from a short kids' dash up to a half marathon. The main menu covers 5K, 10K, and half marathon races, plus an untimed 1 Mile option and a Kid's Dash for children ages 10 and under. Races start at 8 a.m., and runners who cannot be there in person can choose a virtual option and still earn the event swag. The setup leans family-friendly rather than hardcore-only: kids get their own dash, children 12 and under have reduced pricing for the 5K and 10K, and kids can even run the dash for free if they skip the swag. Timed events use chip timing with live results and awards, while the 1 Mile and Kid's Dash stay untimed. Finishers receive items such as custom bibs, designer shirts, and medals, with free race photos and treats waiting after the finish.

About 10K races in Fort Smith

Fort Smith Training Notes

Fort Smith hosts 11 10K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

The Arkansas River Trail is a 3-mile paved line along the Arkansas River. True Grit Running Company keeps it social with Thursday 6:00 PM Grit Group Run miles from the shop. The Grit Group Run gives locals a 3-mile out-and-back, so Z2 can stay short or stretch longer. Ben Geren track works for intervals, and College 4 - Out and back fits steady weekday mileage. The trail has a 28 km section that gains 7,025 m. 1M, MJ's Stampede, and Run for the Girls anchor the race calendar.

Fort Smith riders split time between riverfront base miles and Ben Geren Regional Park dirt. The riverfront gives you a 3-mile paved spin along the Arkansas River when the legs need easy cadence. Ben Geren Regional Park brings over 14 miles of mountain biking trails, with Roller Coaster, Zippidee Doo Dah, and Elvis in the local singletrack mix. The park also has a 9-mile paved trail and adds over 4 miles of well-maintained paths. No named cycling club shows up here, so locals talk routes first. The Ozark Highlands Trail is where the climbs live, and Ben Geren is where fast descents and natural obstacles keep things honest.

Summer mileage owns the calendar from June 8 to August 1. True Grit Running Company's Summer Mileage Training Group meets Monday-Saturday at 6:00 AM, with Ben Geren Storm Shelter mileage plus core and legs Monday-Thursday. Southside Track gets Friday mileage plus ladder drills, and Riverfront Trail gets the Saturday long run. Locals keep dogs home when the temperature is above 85 degrees. Winter changes the rhythm more than the routes. Group runs keep going until lightning, ice, or other severe weather conditions cancel the day, and both runners and riders shift toward cleaner windows for steady Z2.
