Sls Dash 5K for Neurodiversity

The SLS Dash is an inclusive race where neurodivergent and neurotypical runners of all abilities are invited to compete and have fun together. Whether you're a seasoned runner, casual walker, wheelchair participant, or volunteer, the SLS Dash is an opportunity to celebrate movement, neurodiversity, and inclusion.

Participants & volunteers alike are invited to "Dash Like a Hero" by donning their favorite superhero's costume (or any family-friendly re-purposed Halloween costume). 

Other features include:

• Vendor Village & Family Fun Zone booths & activities
• Live DJ
• Coffee and snacks provided by Pathway Cafe, a culinary training academy for individuals with disabilities
• Crystal Bridge's Mobile Art Lab experience
• Food trucks

Proceeds from the event supports SLS Community, a Fayetteville-based non-profit that provides residential and supported employment services for neurodivergent adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. This race winds through the future home of SLS Community, nested below the rolling hills stretching from Mount Kessler at “Mile Zero” of the Razorback Greenway. 

Join fellow runners on November 7, 2026 for the Sls Dash 5K for Neurodiversity. It's a fantastic 5K, 1.6K featuring a flat and fast course in Fayetteville.
