About
5 K Vfw 6527 Run/Walk For Warriors takes place in Greenwood, Arkansas, on October 24, 2026, with one distance offered: a 5K over 3.1 miles, starting at 9:00 a.m. The mid-morning start suits an autumn Saturday, and the run/walk format means the event is open to anyone willing to cover the distance at their own pace.
If you plan to walk it, a brisk 3.1 miles takes most people between 45 minutes and an hour, and the only real preparation needed is a couple of practice walks at that length. If you plan to race it, keep the first mile deliberately conservative — the classic 5K mistake is a fast opening mile paid for over the last two. Four to six weeks of steady running with one weekly interval session is enough to arrive ready.
