Everything you need to know about playing outside in The Natural State.
Years ago, the 3 Legged Dawg Mountain Bike Race was held at Burns Park in North Little Rock as part of a weekend festival which included an XTERRA race and other fun on the trails. Once the new mountain bike trails at Iron Mountain were opened, Fred Phillips of DLT Multisport moved the event to [...]
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step - Laozi Saturday morning we witnessed many people in various stages of the thousand mile journey, including some who were taking that first step. The Go! Mile, in it’s third year, is an event for everyone. We saw kids, barely beyond their first steps in [...]

We are a car-centric society but we don’t have to be. We do need our elected officials and various government managers to understand that our transportation infrastructure needs to keep up with the demands of citizens who don’t feel that they should be forced to own a car to live in our cities.

What happens when a whole bunch of people who love to run trail get together for a morning of fun? Cats get smacked. No actual cats were harmed in the running of the annual Catsmacker 22-ish mile (I think I overheard a Garmin discussion that had it at 24.4 miles) fun run or the optional [...]
I’ve heard of several Arkansas riders heading up to the Tulsa Tough Criteriums this weekend. The Saint Francis Tulsa Tough Cycling Festival features a Granfondo and three days of top notch criterium racing. Yes, I know, Tulsa is not in Arkansas, but it’s close and we see a lot of their riders at Arkansas events [...]

The wisp of clouds in the sky had just that kiss of orange that comes with the sunrise when we arrived at Murray Park in search of runners.
