Spirits were high, and the energy was electric in Downtown Bentonville this weekend, as over 1400 participants descended upon the streets for the much-anticipated Goblin 5K and Kids Fun Run. Bentonville's Northeast Memorial Park Square, usually the epitome of tranquility, morphed into a Halloween haven awash with creative costumes and fun-filled frolics.

The event, a spectacular staple of the Run Bentonville Race Series, lived up to its reputation, drawing costumed runners varying from fiercely fanged vampires to agile, leaping leopards. Families, fitness enthusiasts, and those just in for the ghoulish good time didn’t just run; they roared down the streets, embodying the spirit of Halloween with their creatively creepy and wildly wonderful ensembles.

Spectators and supporters lined the course, cheering and marveling at the spectacular sights of sprinting superheroes and zipping zombies. The chuckles were many, as some runners took a more "pun-ishing" route with their clever costumed wordplays.

As for the youngest of the lot, the Goblin Kids Fun Run was a haunt of hilarity, with little ones charging ahead in their adorable outfits, proving that in Bentonville, the spirit of Halloween is strong and the community spirit even stronger.

The event concluded with a sense of accomplishment and community bond that goes beyond the finish line. This display of infectious enthusiasm has set the bar high for the following festivities.
