Lace up for an unforgettable mile-long dash at the Dickson Street Mile on July 25, 2026, in the vibrant heart of Fayetteville, AR. This event, quickly becoming an iconic staple, offers a unique opportunity to run, jog, or stroll down the lively Dickson Street, an experience typically reserved for special occasions. The course starts and finishes at the intersection of N. Powerhouse Avenue and Dickson Street, near George's Majestic Lounge, utilizing Dickson Street, West Avenue, Spring Street, and East Avenue. With typical race day conditions seeing highs around 90F and lows around 68F, and only a 14% chance of precipitation, runners can expect a warm, spirited summer morning.

What makes the Dickson Street Mile truly special is its festive, parade-like atmosphere, designed for engagement and excitement for both participants and spectators lining the course. This event caters to all paces and furry friends, offering diverse heats including an "Open Mile" for everyone, a "Kids Mile," a "Dog Mile" (leash or harness required), and a "Heroes Mile" for military and first responders. Competitive runners can also test their speed in specific heats for teens, adults, masters, and elite categories with qualifying times. Runner check-in, portable toilets, and sponsor booths are conveniently located in the Upper Ramble, 251 N West Ave, with First Aid adjacent to the finish line.
