Good Ol' Days Festival 5K - Downtown Mount Ida
The Good Ol' Days Festival 5K takes place in downtown Mount Ida, Arkansas, and is part of a larger community festival that includes craft vendors, food trucks, live music, a kid zone, and a car show. The festival began in 1990, paused during the Covid pandemic, and has resumed.
The 5K route begins and concludes at the local high school and is clearly marked. Two water and snack stations are available along the course. Race day packet pickup opens one hour before the race.
Registration information is provided for the event: the entry fee is $25 and includes a bib and a Good Ol' Days 5K participant medal. T-shirts are available for an additional $10 until May 13, 2026. Registration opens February 11, 2026 and closes May 23, 2026. Awards include a medal for the top three finishers in each age and gender category.
Age-group categories are listed for men and women, ranging from 0-9 up to 80 and over. The event address is 338 Whittington Street in Mount Ida; look for the Chamber registration table at that location. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
