Spring Fling - Shreveport

Spring Fling - Shreveport is held in Shreveport, Louisiana, on April 25, 2027. The morning opens with a Kids Dash of about 50 meters at 7:55 a.m., then the 1-mile run, the 5K (3.1 miles) and the 10K (6.2 miles) all set off together at 8:00 a.m.

Four formats on one start line make this a whole-family morning rather than a single-distance race. Parents can take the 10K while younger runners handle the mile or the dash, and everyone finishes in the same window. If you are racing, the shared start means a crowded opening quarter mile, so line up according to your pace and be patient until the field spreads out. A month of steady running with one weekly faster session is enough for the 5K, six weeks if you are stepping up to the 10K.
