Course
The half starts at Cotter Schools, runs downhill for the first mile, and then goes out and most of the way back along the river to finish at Big Spring Park. The last two miles are on compacted fine gravel, and the rest is asphalt.
Aid stations and portable toilets are every two miles. Because the start and finish are in different places, a shuttle bus takes runners back to the school.
About the White River Half Marathon
The White River Marathon, now in its 23rd year, also offers this half and a 5K, all starting at 7 a.m. Proceeds go to local charities, which this year include an animal shelter, the Cotter Fire Department Auxiliary and a regional food bank.
Friday packet pickup at Cotter Schools comes with a pasta dinner and an expo, and the race runs a shoe recycling drive.
