YOUR ARKANSAS MILES HELP FIGHT HUNGER ❤️

Race Through America is about more than collecting medals.

It's also about making your miles matter.

At least 15% of every Race Through Arkansas registration is donated to Feeding America, helping support hunger-relief efforts across the United States.

So while you're working toward your own goal, your registration is also helping support an important cause.

Race across America. Make your miles matter.

Virtual Run Events independently selects charitable organizations to support through our races and is not affiliated with Feeding America.

MORE THAN $1 MILLION RAISED FOR CHARITY

The Virtual Run Events community has helped raise more than $1 million for charities and nonprofit organizations.

Every registration adds to that impact.

Every state gives us another opportunity to give back.

And every participant helps turn ordinary miles into something bigger.
