Event Description
No additional obstacles needed on this course; Mother Nature has already done all the work. A challenging 14 mile course gives a sampling of San Tan Regional Park's 10,000 acres of Sonoran Desert. Stroll thru Malpais wash, barrel down Dynamite, and (suffer) up and over Goldmine. The 8k course is a little easier on the calves but is challenging just the same. The rolling hills down San Tan, Hedgehog, and Moonlight trails brings you through the creosote flats and saguaro forest. All participants receive a huge post-race breakfast, a super cool race tee and finisher medal, as well as entry into fun post-race festivities.
