TMC Get Moving Tucson Half Marathon, 4 Mile and FitKidz Mile

Event Description:

We’re coming back to the A . . . A-Mountain that is.  We enjoyed the past two years at the Biosphere 2, but we’re staging the 2023 edition of our popular TMC Get Moving Tucson Half Marathon and 5k on the west side of Tucson’s Downtown district, at the super-cool Mercado Annex — see https://mercadodistrict.com/annex/.  Thanks to TMC and Rio Nuevo for helping fund this adventure, with beautiful scenery, live music, a post-race party, and awesome souvenirs. 

For all race news and updated information, please visit the race registration page here. (LINK: https://runsignup.com/Race/AZ/Tucson/TMCGetMovingTucson)

Three Distances to Choose From:

* TMC A-Mountain Half Marathon.  We’ve crafted a beautiful 13.1 mile course that loops up and down A-Mountain and does an out-and-back on the speedy Santa Cruz Riverpath.  The start and finish lines will most likely be on Cushing Street, at the Mercado Annex.

* TMC A-Mountain Four-Mile Run/Walk.  Instead of a 5k this year, we think it would be fun to do a 4-miler up and down A-Mountain.  This scenic route is designed for walkers and runners of all ages and abilities!

* Cox Free Family Mile and SAR Free FitKidz: our free family one mile will cover an out and back along Cushing and Grande!

All runners and walkers receive:

  • Souvenir race medal to celebrate your A-Mountain journey
  • Bright long sleeve shirt to keep you warm during the coming winter months
  • Prize Money for top runners
  • Age group awards courtesy of The Running Shop
  • Post-race snacks from TMC + Skratch Labs post-race fuel
  • Music and discounted beer at Westbound after the race
  • The TMC A-Mountain Half is part of SAR’s Running Shop Mizuno Grand Prix.

In partnership with the super-cool “23 Miles of Mexican Food Festival” that takes place after the race and with the Southern Arizona Roadrunners.

This event is the third and final race of the three-race Gabe Zimmerman Triple Crown.  The TMC A-Mountain Half-Marathon is part of the SAR Running Shop Grand Prix.
