HashFest Red Dress Weekend

HashFest Red Dress Weekend is held in Hot Springs, Arkansas, on November 13, 2026, with a single trail event of about 3 miles (4.8 km) setting off at 5 p.m.

Distance is not the point of a hash: a late-afternoon start, a trail underfoot and a costume theme put this closer to a social run than to a race. There is no training block to build for 3 miles off-road, though a couple of easy runs a week on dirt beforehand makes the footing feel routine rather than awkward. Wear shoes you do not mind scuffing, and plan for a late finish given the 5 p.m. start. Anyone who can cover 3 miles at a walk-run pace can take part.
