From the Organizer
Western Arkansas Runners is honored to be able to carry on the Annual Memorial Run honoring BRENT MORRISON who was an avid runner in the River Valley as well as the Hot Springs area. This year will mark the 11th year that a run of some form has been held and along with honoring Brent, we will also be honoring runners whose life's have been taken too soon. Run in honor of that runner you knew who is no longer with us. Our Age Group awards are always an extra special treat and all runners will receive a finishers award as well as food, music and runner comradery afterwards !!! A portion of the proceeds will go towards our clubs plans to host a Jr. Run Clinic, Memorial Site for Brent, with the remainder to go towards day-to-day use of the Western Arkansas Running Club, a non profit organization, located in Chaffee on Taylor Ave, along with our weekly sponsored runs and events for runners. Western Arkansas Runners- WAR- supports Runners and Walkers of all ages and gender and live by the motto "No Runners Left Behind".
