The Striders have been presenting three competitive road races per year, including the Arkansas 20k, the Arkansas Runner 2 Mile Race, and beginning in 2010, Run with the Dogs 5k and 1 Mile Fun run/walk fundraiser for the Saline County Humane Society.  In addition, the Sunset Challenge 6/12/24 Hour Run at Sunset Lake loop began in 2011.  The Arkansas Marathon, which had been presented by the Striders in Benton from 2003 to 2009 returned to Booneville, Arkansas in 2010.

In 2023 the Striders launched our first run/walk clinic and brought it back in 2024. In 2024 we added a community 5k as the graduation race for the culmination of the 10-week clinic. We now also present a Turkey Trot 5k on November 23, 2024.
