About the Event

The MacArthur Park 5K is an annual race in downtown Little Rock coordinated by the MacArthur Park Group, Little Rock Parks & Recreation and Downtown Little Rock Partnership. The 3.1 mile race (5K) begins from the North Lawn (9th Street) of MacArthur Park in front of the MacArthur Museum of Arkansas Military History. Proceeds from this year’s race will support continued efforts to make much needed improvements to MacArthur Park.

Packet pick up is from 5 p.m.- 6:45p.m. on Friday, May 1st on the North Lawn directly in front of the MacArthur Museum of Arkansas Military History. You will receive your t-shirt, bib and chip. The race will begin promptly at 7 p.m. This race is timed using chip timing. Each chip must be returned to the race organizers once you cross the finish line.

Once you've crossed the finish line, please stay for the awards ceremony, live music, with plenty of food and drinks, including Stone's Throw beer!
