Event Overview
The Espresso Run/Ride is a social sports event in Fayetteville, Arkansas, organized by the Natural State Run Club. Participants travel along the Razorback Greenway, visiting several local coffee shops throughout the route. The event is designed as a group activity where participants stop and linger at various locations to consume local brews.
Route and Participation
The course covers a total distance of approximately 8 miles. The longest segment between coffee stops is roughly 3 miles. Participation is open to those who wish to move via different methods:
- 8 Mile Run
- 8 Mile Bike Ride
- Virtual Participation (Donation based)
The event is point-to-point rather than a loop. Participants are responsible for their own transportation from the finish line, as no return shuttle service is provided.
Included Services
The registration fee covers the cost of coffee at each dedicated stop along the route, although consumption is not mandatory. Water is provided for participants. A portion of the proceeds from the registration fee is allocated as a donation to a local non-profit organization. Previous iterations of the event have included stops at locations such as Old Pine Coffee Roasters, Onyx Coffee Lab, Doomsday Coffee, Rush Running Co., and The Meteor Cafe.
