Colossal Vail 50/50
Colossal Vail 50/50
December 2, 2023 7:00 am - 9:00 pm
Colossal Cave Mountain Park
10151 E Colossal Cave Rd, Vail, AZ 85641, United States
The Colossal Vail 50/50 presented by Fleet Feet Tucson is an adventurous ultra run on portions of the Arizona Trail near the community of Vail (24 miles southeast of Tucson). Starting and finishing at Colossal Cave Mountain Park, both the 55K and 50-mile courses feature some of the greatest high desert trail running opportunities in this part of the state. There’s also a spicy half-marathon distance in the morning, and a nighttime half-marathon — runners can do both for a full trail marathon (with a nice long break in the middle of the day).
Volunteers are always needed! For more information, and to register, visit our Volunteer Events Page.
