Fayetteville Half Marathon
2020 Event Status
- Created: Wednesday, 19 August 2020 15:56
The University of Arkansas Athletic Department and the SEC just released the updated 2020 Razorback Football schedule. And of course, they didn’t consult with All Sports Productions regarding the Fayetteville Half Marathon…:) The originally scheduled date for the FHM of November 7 is now a home game against Tennessee!
In other words, we may very well have to reschedule. The cancellation of the SEC season, like other major conferences, would be the only reason that we wouldn’t.
We have proposed an alternative date if the SEC continues as planned. November 14 is our preferred alternative date. This new date is being reviewed and vetted with the University of Arkansas outdoor facilities and campus administration before then going to the City of Fayetteville for final approval.
In-person registration has temporarily been suspended (only virtual will be open for now) until we have more guidance on the fall athletic schedule and approval from the UA and City of Fayetteville. Once we have a definitive answer, an update will be sent out. In the interim, you will receive weekly updates through our email newsletter and social media platforms.
We realize that this year has been a challenge for all concerned in the organized outdoor active lifestyle and event production world. We empathize not only with our athletes, but also our fellow event promoters in trying to navigate this unprecedented time.
We sincerely appreciate our local communities, sponsors, volunteers, committee, staff and especially our athletes for their commitment to this event. Keep training, and we will all be stronger on the other side.
