Run Bentonville Series Freedom Frosty 5K

Run Bentonville Series Freedom Frosty 5K is a 5K held in Bentonville, Arkansas, on December 5, 2026, starting at 8:00 AM. It is part of the Run Bentonville race series, so it also works as one leg of a longer season rather than a standalone morning.

Series races reward consistency more than a single peak performance, which changes how you might approach the day. Rather than tapering hard for one 5K, keep your normal training running and treat this as a measured hard effort, then compare it with your other results across the series. If you want a fast time anyway, three weeks with one weekly session of short repetitions at 5K effort is enough to sharpen legs that already have mileage in them. An 8:00 AM December start means arriving early and warming up in layers you can shed at the line.
