The '''Medical Mile''' is a trail connecting the Little Rock [[River Market District]] with the [[Arkansas River Trail]] in [[Riverfront Park]]. The trail segment - sponsored by the National Park Service River Trails and Conservation Assistance Program, [[Heart Clinic Arkansas]], and the [[Little Rock Department of Parks and Recreation]] - cost $2.1 million to build and was completed in December 2003. Said Little Rock mayor [[Jim Dailey]] at the dedication ceremony, "When these physicians agreed to help raise money for this project, they made a two year commitment. That was more than three years ago. The excitement within the healthcare community has been so - to use a medical term - contagious, that the project has grown beyond its original scope."

The Medical Mile incorporates a number of special artistic elements by [[Debra Moseley Lord]], including a thirteen hundred foot mural, a promenade, and the [[St. Vincent Plaza]]. Arkansas River Trail coordinator [[Terry Eastin]] said that he thought of the Medical Mile as "an outdoor linear health museum that uses a variety of artistic and architectural expressions to promote the health benefits of physical activity, and other wellness themes."

The contractor on the Medical Mile was [[Bell-Corley Construction]].

Governor [[Mike Huckabee]], who has lost a great amount of weight in part by using the trail, noted, "The Medical Mile is a great inspiration to lure people out to the trail, and once they're out there they're hooked."

The Medical Mile is Eastin's brainchild with cardiologist [[Robert Lambert]].
