Cancer Challenge 10K/5K

Lace up for a meaningful run at the Cancer Challenge 10K/5K in scenic Bella Vista, Arkansas, on Saturday, June 20, 2026. This inspiring event offers participants the choice of a 10K or 5K run, along with a 1-Mile Walk, making it accessible for all ages and fitness levels. Staged at Cooper Elementary, the courses wind along the picturesque Lake Bella Vista Trail Course, promising a beautiful journey through the natural landscape.

Runners can anticipate an early 7:00 AM start, a thoughtful consideration given typical race day conditions in June, which often see highs around 90°F and lows around 68°F, with a modest 15% chance of precipitation. Each registration includes a commemorative t-shirt, a swag bag, and a finisher's medal to celebrate your accomplishment. Age category awards will also be presented. Beyond the personal achievement, the Cancer Challenge is distinguished by its profound mission: all funds raised remain local, directly supporting cancer patients within the Northwest Arkansas community.

This annual event is more than just a race; it's a vibrant community gathering dedicated to a vital cause. Participants can look forward to complimentary snacks and beverages post-race, fostering a celebratory and supportive atmosphere. Join fellow runners and walkers on the Lake Bella Vista Trail Course for a rewarding experience that combines physical challenge with heartfelt community impact.
