The Down & Dirty Description
Created as a fun introduction to adventure racing, the Raid The Rock Mud Run is for the adventuresome spirit. Participants will run or walk this 5K course laced with a 300 foot mud pit. The point is not to finish fast but finish with style. We had a great time in 2004 - If you don't believe me go out on the this website and look at the pictures. We will see how much fun it is to "GET DOWN AND DIRTY" -
Imagine the sounds of hundreds of thousands of bells jingling as people from coast to coast run, walk and cheer in the Arthritis Foundation’s Jingle Bell Run for Arthritis®. Across Little Rock, bells will be ringing as people like you tie jingle bells to their shoelaces, don festive holiday costumes and join friends and neighbors in support of the Arthritis Foundation’s mission to prevent, control and cure arthritis and related diseases. The Jingle Bell Run for Arthritis raises awareness of America’s leading cause of disability, while raising desperately needed funds to find a cure for arthritis.
