It’s Spa Running Fest Time 

Spa Running Festival 2025 takes off on November 15, at 7 AM, through beautiful Hot Springs National Park. The Festival is an event for everyone – kids, walkers, beginners to elite runners, and those who like a challenge. The Squirt Race is for kids 2 – 10 years of age. The 5K is a fast and flat course, and for both walkers and runners. 

The 10K runners enjoy the beauty of running West Mountain. At almost a decade long run, the Summit2Summit Half Marathon is for those who like a challenge – this course takes you through the scenic National Park, going summit to summit on 2 mountains! 

Come enjoy the Expo on Friday at the Hot Springs Convention Center, 134 Convention Blvd. Then, after the race, hang around to enjoy great food, the beer tent, picture taking, socializing, and bragging rights that you conquered BOTH mountains. Proceeds from the 2024 race will benefit these several non-profit organizations. For more race details, visit sparunningfest.com
