Endurance Racing in Arizona
Arizona is a winter racing paradise. When much of the country is frozen, Arizona's desert climate offers perfect conditions for marathons, half marathons, and triathlons from November through March. The Phoenix and Tucson metro areas host dozens of road races on flat, fast courses through Sonoran Desert landscapes. Mesa Marathon and Rock 'n' Roll Arizona draw thousands of runners seeking winter PRs. Ironman Arizona in Tempe is one of the season's final full-distance triathlons. Trail running thrives year-round in Sedona's red rock country, the Superstition Mountains, and Flagstaff's pine forests at elevation. Obstacle course races like Spartan and Savage Race use the rugged desert terrain to full advantage.
