Forge & Freedom 5K 2026 — Cave Springs, AR

Forge & Freedom 5K Join us for the Forge & Freedom 5K, hosted by The Foundry, as we come together to celebrate strength, resilience, and the freedom to serve something greater than ourselves. Whether you're chasing a personal record, walking with family and friends, or simply showing your support, every step you take will make a meaningful impact. All proceeds from this event benefit Sheep Dog Impact Assistance (SDIA) , a nonprofit dedicated to engaging, assisting, and empowering veterans, active-duty military, first responders, and their families through programs that foster healing, purpose, and post-traumatic growth. At The Foundry , we believe that strength is forged through challenge and community. The Forge & Freedom 5K is more than just a race—it's an opportunity to honor those who have dedicated their lives to serving others while supporting an organization that helps them continue to thrive. Every registered participant will receive a custom-designed, premium-quality Forge & Freedom 5K race shirt —created exclusively for this event and made to wear with pride on race day and long after you cross the finish line. After the race, stick around to celebrate with fellow participants and enjoy complimentary post-race refreshments as we come together as a community. Lace up your running shoes, bring your friends and family, and join us as we run with purpose. Together, we can forge a stronger community and help provide freedom, hope, and healing for our nation's heroes. Stand for Strength. Celebrate Freedom. Stride with Purpose .
