_ The 2019 Adam Brown Mile:

This race is designed to celebrate one of America's distances, the mile. The race is a point to point MILE race run on Adam Brown Road that features rolling hills along the traffic controlled route. Participants can compete in the Male/Female Open Divisions or Masters (Over 40) heats to test their ability. There are also divisions for Junior and Senior High School competitors to race against some of the best Track and Cross Country runners from our region.The race is directed by Hall of Fame Coach Karl Koonce and current Lake Hamilton High School Head Coach, Brandon Smith. It has been selected as the RRCA State Championship for 2019 and will honor fallen Navy Seal Hero and Lake Hamilton High School Alumni, Adam Brown. Awards will be based on 10 year divisions along with Masters (40+), Grand Masters(50+), and Seniors (60+). An event shirt is included for Open,Masters, and Virtual Runners. Shirts are not included with the School Team Entries.

Give me 5...Kilometers: 

Don't want to drive to Hot Springs to "just" run a mile? Since it's a long way to drive to race a mile so we are going to have a group run after the open category is over to celebrate Adam Brown.   We will start at 9:00 am after the mile race is done and begin a fun run 5K to honor his legacy. The course will be marked for those who want to go give it all they got and lead the pack.We will time it old "skool" with Coach Koonce's stop watch.  There's no awards or medals, just the honor of running your best for Adam. Also we will have a volunteer to bring up the rear to make sure no "man" is left behind (or woman that is). There will even be an early bailout point (at mile 1) to those who might not quite be ready for the full distance but still want to do a little extra. This route will finish at the parking/awards location and participation is optional. Water will be provided at the half way point.  There is no additional charge for this event and it is open to all race participants. The course will not be closed to traffic but it is run on extremely low traffic side roads.

You can support the Lake Hamilton Track and Cross Country Program and travel your mile at the location you choose on Saturday 24th.

The Kid's Run 1/2:

Kids that are 12 and under can compete on the same course as the adult division by running the last half of the Adam Brown Mile course. Adults may run with their child but will be asked to start in the the back of the field. Awards will be given to for male/female in the following divisions.
