Sabino Canyon Sunset Run - April 10, 2027
This event takes place at Sabino Canyon, 5700 N Sabino Canyon Rd, Tucson, AZ. It offers two course options:
- 7.4 mile course
- 2 mile fun run/walk
The 7.4 mile course follows the paved main tram road into the canyon for about 3.7 miles, then returns the same way. The first half is generally uphill and the return is downhill. Aid stations with water are located at miles 1.7, 3.4, and 5.1. The 2 mile course goes one mile into the canyon and back; there will be no aid station on that course and participants should carry their own water.
Entry benefits differ by distance. All registrants receive a super-soft event shirt and finish-line refreshments. 7.4 mile finishers receive a finisher medal; the 7.4 mile field also has overall and age-group awards including gift certificates. Finish-line food and drinks include pizza and Eegees. The 7.4 mile is part of The Running Shop SAR Grand Prix. The event benefits Friends of Sabino Canyon.
Registration is online only, each distance has a participation cap, and the event has sold-out history. No transfers, refunds, or deferrals are allowed. Runners in the 7.4 mile must maintain a sub-19 minute per mile pace; they must reach the turnaround and subsequent aid stations within the published time limits or be removed from the course. Packet pickup is available at a local running store and at the race site. Participants are responsible for safety and for any required park day-use fees or passes.
