Spirit of Syllamo

Oooooo! New buckles and a volunteer opening:

Buckle Update:
Slight edit to make the head dress more prominent. 100m Finishers will have a choice of the remaining original design or the updated design. The OG buckles were a run of 50 - 17 remain up for grabs.

Excited to announce our Moccasin Aid Captain Jeremy Jackson is planning to crew his son Connor on his first 100m attempt!
Jeremy and Connor have been a part of Spirit every single year. So excited to hear Connor is aiming to run this year. Barring something out of their control, Connor's plan is to toe the line and run!

Aid Location - Moccasin Springs Trailhead.
Aid Setup needs to be around 10am. First runner last year was 11:54am. Aid close was around midnight but must remain available until the last runner is accounted for. This location can be extremely windy because it's on a ridge. Volunteers would need to be well equipped in cold weather. We offer warm food at this location, cook ware is needed. Access is easy, just off a paved highway. Cell reception is decent with Verizon but might be texts only. If interested, please reach out.

Crazy! We are only 4 months away from our big adventure in the Ozark National Forest. Registration are beginning to increase and we are getting excited about the upcoming "Trail Season". Like every year, we'll start with trail maintenance in September and will share progress as we go. Cheers to a great rest of the Summer!

Good luck to all the LOViT runners this weekend!

Ankles of Steel…Iron Will. That’s what you’ll need to take on the LOViT challenge – an endurance run of rocky, rolling hills and ridge lines that will take you along the southern rim of one of America’s most pristine fresh water lakes and through the ruggedly beautiful Ouachita National.....

Shout out to Jeremy Jackson and family. They've been a part of Spirit of Syllamo every year - including pacing the first FKT, running the invite year, finishing the 99 mile route, and running the Moccasin Aid Station in bitter cold. We couldn't do this event without such dedicated friends and a thriving Arkansas Running Community!
Here's some unseen photos from the 2026 event at Moccasin Springs Aid Station.
