Eagle 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon

Lace up your running shoes for the Eagle 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon, set to take flight on Saturday, July 4, 2026, in scenic Springdale, Arkansas. This event, held at Shaw Family Park (7341 W Downum Rd), promises an invigorating out-and-back challenge across all distances, inviting runners to experience the beautiful surroundings of Benton County. Whether you're tackling the 5K, pushing through the 10K, or conquering the Half Marathon, each course provides a dynamic multi-lap experience, starting promptly at 8:00 AM CDT. The 5K completes the course twice, the 10K four times, and the Half Marathon six times, offering a consistent yet engaging challenge with a generous 3-hour and 30-minute time limit.

Participants can look forward to more than just a race; the Eagle event is part of the esteemed US Road Running Race Series, where runners earn valuable points. Every finisher will be rewarded with a stylish themed medal to commemorate their achievement. Adding to the festive atmosphere, a best costume contest will be held before the race, encouraging creativity and fun. Typical race day conditions in early July include highs around 90°F and lows around 68°F, with a 13% chance of precipitation.

To ensure a smooth start, packet pickup begins 30 minutes before the race, concluding 10 minutes prior to the 8:00 AM kick-off. All registrations must be completed online via RunSignup, as there will be no on-site registration, and prices are set to increase the Monday before the event. Prepare for an event that combines a well-organized setup with a vibrant, celebratory spirit, where "stamina, smiles, and a bit of sparkle" await every participant.
