Come and experience the only nude run in AZ! This desert trail 5k will take you around the Shangri La Ranch property; up the hiking trail, along the dry wash, and through the majority of the ranch. Racers are encouraged to run with nothing on but tennis shoes, however nudity is not a requirement. Race registration includes a day visit so plan on spending the day with us to enjoy our pools, café, clubhouse, game room, more hiking, and meeting great friends.

This could be your next Destination Trail Race!  Experience the desert in October, one of the best months to visit the Phoenix area.  Join us on October 9th, for our fall kick off event: XTERRA Papago Urban Desert Trail Run, the perfect way to say goodbye to summer and hello to fall.

We are excited to invite you to our Annual Step-N-Out 5K walk/run/dash, a family-friendly event on Sunday, November 6, 2022. Be sure to bring the whole family, as the day will be filled with lots of fun and excitement as we come together both in-person and virtually to help raise awareness and funds for pancreatic cancer research.

No additional obstacles needed on this course; Mother Nature has done all the work to give the XTERRA San Tan Trail Run a few extra challenges. Enjoy a tough but scenic trek through San Tan Regional Park‘s 10,000 acres of Sonoran Desert.

Why come run the Fat Turkey Trail Run? Because you’ve eaten too much, because it’s in the red rocks of Papago Park, because it’s on the trails, because more than a 10k is too far when you’re this full, and because RUNNING IS FUN!

Join us and cooler weather for XTERRA Estrella Mountain Trail Run, the third race in Arizona’s XTERRA Trail Run Series. Consisting almost entirely of single track, the 12k and 15 mile courses will challenge beginner and experienced trail runners alike. The 5k is perfect for those new to trail running and the 42k will bring joy to those who just can’t stop.

Race number four in the Arizona XTERRA Trail Run Series takes place at White Tank Mountain Regional Park on Saturday, January 8, 2022. This nearly 30,000 acre park is made up of the rugged and beautiful White Tank Mountains, named for depressions cut into white granite. Our clearly-marked trails and enthusiastic on-course volunteers will have you feeling loved and supported!

XTERRA McDowell Mtn Trail Run is one of our favorite venues. With over 80 miles of trails to choose from, McDowell Mountain Regional Park is a trail runner’s paradise.
