Beyond Saguaro National Park West – Free 4M & 1M Fun Run/Walk

Sunday, January 8, 2023

Event Description:

BEYOND is an ongoing community-wide event to commemorate the anniversary of January 8, 2011, celebrate the spirit of togetherness we felt in the days and months afterward, and recommit ourselves to working together to build a stronger community every day.

As part of this commemorative effort, SAR is assisting the National Park Service in hosting a free running and walking event at Saguaro National Park West.

This free, non-competitive running and walking event takes participants through the beautiful desert landscape of Saguaro National Park West! A 4-mile run/walk as well as a 1-mile fun run/walk are offered. This event is part of the annual Beyond Events and is produced in collaboration with Beyond Tucson, Saguaro National Park, and Southern Arizona Roadrunners.

Runners and walkers of all ages and abilities are invited. Please no wheeled vehicles and no pets. The course will include rolling dirt roads and plenty of gorgeous National Park scenery. The run will not be officially timed and there will be no awards or posted results but participants must register. Due to parking and trail usage concerns, this free event is limited to 400 participants.

Event Start Time: 8:30 AM, Sunday, January 8, 2023. Please arrive early to allow time for parking along Kinney Road!
