Event Overview

The Flashback 5K is an athletic event held at the NWACC Cross Country Course in Bentonville, Arkansas. The 2026 edition introduces a new location for the course. This event features a 1990s theme, and participants are encouraged to wear era-specific attire such as neon hats and high-top sneakers.

The gathering serves as a fundraiser for the Children & Family Advocacy Center, with all proceeds supporting services for children and families within the local community. In addition to the running events, the venue hosts a Family Fun Festival.

Participants have several distance options to choose from:

  • 5K Run: A standard long-distance course for various age groups.
  • 1 Mile Fun Run: A shorter course available for both students and adults.
  • Hero Dash: A 400-yard dash specifically for children aged 12 and under.

Registered participants in the 5K and 1 Mile events receive event materials following their participation, which include a T-shirt, a medal, and a goody bag. On-site registration is available for those who do not sign up in advance. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
