Compete in all three of the FIBArk running races and contend for the Triple Crown title. The male and female competitor with the best combined time for all three events wins. Triple Crown competitors must run the 10K on Saturday.
Hill Climb
A signature kick-off to FIBArk events, this one-of-a-kind race is no walk in the park! Beginning at the stop light at 1st and F streets, participants will run and scramble straight up Tenderfoot (aka "S" Mountain) and back down. Believe it or not, the winners do it in less than 12 minutes! Prizes go to top male and female competitor, middle of the pack, and oldest runner. ALL participants qualify for bragging rights!
5k/10k
You don't have to be in the water to compete at FIBArk. Join in the competitive atmosphere without getting even your toes wet! These two courses are on county roads, starting and finishing on the mesa near the Courthouse. Awards will be given for the fastest male and female runner as well as the top three male and female athletes in each age category.
Trail Run
Join us on the NEW trail run course utilizing the new Arkansas Hills trails that Salida Mountain Trails has been working so hard to build. This is a 10K course around and behind Tenderfoot Mountain that will put you to the test after a weekend of festivities. This will also be the final race for Triple Crown Competitors. Awards given for the top male and female finishers. Map
