Event Type : Obstacle Course

Arrowhead Obstacle Trail Run is a 5k (3.1 mile) event on the scenic trails of Arrowhead Park near Neola, Iowa featuring 15 obstacles.  There is also a 1 Mile Kid’s Obstacle Trail Run with 10 obstacles!   All proceeds benefit the Pottawattamie County Trails Association.  The event will be held on Saturday, September 14th, 2024 beginning at 10:30 AM with the 1 Mile Kids Run.

This is NOT a “mud run” and there are no mud pits to crawl through (and therefore no cold post-race hose showers are necessary).  All obstacles in the 1 Mile and 5k Open Wave are optional (except the hills, those are fixed in place).  You may choose to run it as a 5k Trail Run, skipping the obstacles.  Competitive Wave runners must complete all obstacles to be eligible for a top 10 finisher medal.

The 1 Mile Kid’s Run is recommended for ages 6-12 and adult chaperones, but is open to anyone.

Registration includes entrance to the park, free parking and free event photos available on Facebook and RunSignup following the run.
