In this country we have Freedom, we have freedom to Run and we have the freedom to run a July 4th race and finish with pride. We will be hosting the Freedom Finishers 5K at Paragould's Rotary Park on July 4th starting at 7:00AM. The start time has been moved up to allow participants the opportunity to run this event and get to the Community Center for the 8:00AM 4 miler event. The course will be an out and back on the 8 mile ditch trail.
