About the Little Rock Teal Trot

The course runs through Two Rivers Park, a green stretch where the terrain stays manageable and the surroundings are open. The race benefits the Tina Head Ovarian Cancer Foundation, so the crowd skews toward people who have a personal connection to ovarian cancer research, which gives the morning a particular weight.

Packet pickup runs the afternoon before at Cache River Creative Company on East Broadway Street in North Little Rock. If you miss that window, there is also a race-morning option at the registration table near the finish line at Two Rivers Park.

Common Questions About the Little Rock Teal Trot

Will I finish last at the Little Rock Teal Trot?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 44:08, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:06:00, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Little Rock Teal Trot a good first 5K?

It is a small race (58 finishers), which is friendlier and less intimidating than a big-city event, though the field thins out. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Little Rock Teal Trot?

The 5K winner ran 22:40 while the median finisher took 44:08. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
