TMC Saguaro National Park Labor Day 8-Miler/5k

Prize money for course records, age group and overall awards, a souvenir shirt and post-race fun for all. Your race entry provides a day pass into Saguaro National Park. Produced by the Southern Arizona Roadrunners, whose original founders created the race back in 1971. The rolling paved course promises a challenge, but the breathtaking views of saguaro, prickly pears, ocotillos, and possibly even a rattlesnake or two make it worth it! The 8-Mile is a clockwise loop, with challenging rolling hills and beautiful views of the Rincon Mountains, the Catalina Mountains, and the entire Tucson basin. The 5k is a less-challenging out-and-back covering the last portion of the 8-mile race. A note on 2026 pricing: Your race entry includes an entrance pass to the Saguaro National Park. You can save $5 on your registration by submitting your National Park Service number at the appropriate spot in the registration process. Please be sure to enter your NPS number with a mix of letters and numerals, not the SKU number on the card. You can purchase an NPS annual pass online here. Run more, pay less!

The Park Service asks that all participants pay the standard entry fee to the park. This amount will go directly to the National Parks Service. If you buy an annual pass to the national parks (or are under 16 years of age), this fee will be waived if you provide your permit number on your hard-copy entry form or your online registration. Friends of Saguaro: This year's event will donate funds to the Friends of Saguaro. Friends of Saguaro National Park: Our mission is to help the public discover Saguaro, protect Saguaro, and support Saguaro.
