Run Young & Free 5K & 1K Fun Run 2026

The Run Young & Free 5K & 1K Fun Run is a community race in Hot Springs, Arkansas, offering a 5K for runners and a 1K fun run for children and families. All Children's Academy organizes this event focused on health and wellness for all ages, involving local businesses and nonprofits.

The finish line is located by the new Babe Ruth Field, connecting the race to a recent sports development in the city rather than a standard road course.
