Papa Loco Marathon And Half Marathon

The annual loop-de-loop of Tucker Creek Trail in Conway, Arkansas, Loco is a laid back race with ample aid station support, approximately every half mile. We offer both full and half marathon distances. And with an eight hour time limit for both it's the perfect choice for a first full. (We are walker friendly!)

Plus, at only $50 for either race, Loco is a bargain! All participants (that register in time) will receive shirts and finisher bling. Awards will be given to the top three finishers for each distance, male and female.

Packet pickup will be available at both The Ride in Conway and Rock City Running in Little Rock on Friday, as well as at the race on Saturday. You will need to choose your pickup location when you register. Your packet will be at the location you choose during registration.
