EXPERIENCE THE GRAND CANYON STATE 🌵🏜️

Arizona is unforgettable.

Towering saguaros.

Brilliant desert sunsets.

Red-rock canyons.

Rugged mountain trails.

Wide-open skies.

Pine forests.

And landscapes that seem to stretch forever.

From Phoenix and Tucson to Sedona, Flagstaff, Monument Valley, and the Grand Canyon, Arizona offers some of the most recognizable scenery in America.

And while the desert may be Arizona's calling card, the state is filled with an incredible variety of landscapes—from cactus-covered valleys to high-country forests and snow-covered mountain peaks.

Your Race Through Arizona challenge lets you capture some of that adventurous spirit wherever you happen to be.

Run your neighborhood.

Walk your favorite trail.

Explore a local park.

Head to the gym.

Complete your miles on a treadmill.

Or find a scenic outdoor route and create your own adventure.

And if you're actually completing your challenge in Arizona?

Even better.

Find your favorite trail, take in that desert sky, and make those Arizona miles unforgettable.

YOUR ARIZONA MILES HELP FIGHT HUNGER ❤️

Race Through America is about more than collecting medals.

It's also about making your miles matter.

15% of every Race Through Arizona registration is donated to Feeding America, helping support hunger-relief efforts across the United States.

So while you're working toward your own goal, your registration is also helping support an important cause.

Race across America. Make your miles matter.

MORE THAN $1 MILLION RAISED FOR CHARITY

The Virtual Run Events community has helped raise more than $1 million for charities and nonprofit organizations.

Every registration adds to that impact.

Every state gives us another opportunity to give back.
