Race Information
Arrowhead Obstacle Trail Run is a 5k (3.1 mile) event on the scenic trails of Arrowhead Park near Neola, Iowa and features 15+ obstacles. There is also a 1-Mile Kid's Obstacle Trail Run with 10+ obstacles! This is NOT a "mud run" and there are no mud pits to crawl through (and therefore no cold post-race hose showers are necessary). All obstacles in the 1 Mile and 5k Open Wave are optional. You may choose to run it as a 5k Trail Run, skipping the obstacles. Competitive Wave runners must complete all obstacles to be eligible for a top 10 finisher medal. The 1 Mile Kid's Run is recommended for ages 6-12 and adult chaperones, but is open to anyone.
