Race Info
The Arkansas Marathon is one of the oldest and most unique marathons in the South. The race is not crowded, parking is easy and the scenery is great. In fact, you may find yourself sharing the road with deer, turkey, squirrels and an odd rabbit or two. The road course places you with the view of Mt. Magazine, the tallest mountain in 11 states, and along the boundary between the Ozark National Forest and the Ouachita National Forest. Our route is unique as all 4 races are out and back. No riding a bus, no waiting in line, just a great day to run. We invite you to come enjoy a great run in a unique Marathon. We are looking forward to seeing you in South Logan County! Source
