Race Description
The 11th Annual Frozen Buns Run is scheduled to take place on New Year's Day, January 1, 2025, in Fort Smith, Arkansas. Hosted by the Western Arkansas Runners, the event will feature a 5K race, with participants encouraged to add extra miles afterward.

The Frozen Buns Run is known for fostering a festive atmosphere, where participants and spectators alike can enjoy food and spirits together. The event has been a tradition for over a decade, originating from a previous winter when many races were canceled. Runners are reminded to keep an eye on weather updates, as the race will proceed unless extreme conditions force a cancellation. Volunteers are always welcome, making it possible for everyone to be involved, whether running or assisting at the event.
