About the Big Kahuna 5K, 10K - Little Rock
The race runs out of Cook's Landing Park, and the organizer leans into a tropical theme throughout. Expect music at the start and finish, leis for participants, and a post-race treat. The course serves several distance options, from a short kids dash up through a longer run, so groups with mixed abilities tend to show up together.
Packet pickup wraps up shortly before the first wave goes off, so arriving early is worth it. The kids dash kicks things off, followed quickly by the main race start with a national anthem. Awards and finish-line festivities follow, and there is a tropical-themed photo backdrop set up near the finish area.

The Big Kahuna 5K, 10K - Little Rock has been held every year since at least 2026. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 25, 2026.
