TMC Tucson 10K & 5K – 9/13/2026

The TMC Tucson 10K was developed to provide Southern Arizonans and visitors with a stunningly scenic course that is challenging but speedy. The 10K course starts at Pima West and cruises the iconic rolling hills of the Tucson Mountains near scenic Starr Pass and Gates Pass. The 5K course also starts at Pima West and is an out-and-back route. Staging is in the shaded middle courtyard at Pima Community College, West Campus, providing an enjoyable space for pre- and post-race activities. All participants receive a souvenir race shirt and commemorative medal, plus other post-race goodies. The 10K is part of the Running Shop SAR Grand Prix series.

This is the second race of the Gabe Zimmerman Triple Crown. Learn more here or here.
