TMC Run with the Roosters Kinney Road 5 Miler July 9, 2017
Hi friends! Thanks to each and every one of you for being a part of today’s Run with the Roosters. Each year this race grows in numbers, but it isn’t the amount of people that touches us, it’s the community spirit and happy people that make our events so much fun and gratifying. So, to all, thank you for sharing your great spirits and smiles. To our volunteers and sponsors we send our deepest appreciation for all you do for Everyone Runs! Until we meet again in September and/or November.

This time you get to go down the “92 Stair Climb” and still up and down a bunch of stairs on the Birding Trail! Terrain consists of desert mountain trails and creeks, all with mostly moderate climbs and descents. Elevation ranges from 2799 to 3008 feet. 10.3 miler open only to runners.

Packet pick-up and late registration details (cash or check only for new registrants):
We strongly ask that, unless you are traveling to Tucson on race day, you please pick-up your packet on Friday or Saturday at Fleet Feet (see right below for locations and specific times). For those of you with special circumstances, we will have your number available on race morning from 5:00 a.m. to 6:20 a.m. Friends and family can pick-up your number.
- Friday, September 23, 3pm to 6pm, only at Fleet Feet at 7301 E. Tanque Verde (do not go to the Oracle store!)
- Saturday, September 24, 10am to 4pm, only at Fleet Feet at 7607 N. Oracle Rd. (do not go to the Tanque Verde store!
This race is chip timed. Your race timing chip will only be available on race morning at our white tents near the picnic area at the end of the parking lot.
Switching event distance: if you want to switch your race distance, you must email the race director by Friday, September 23, to everyoneruns@comcast.net. Switching distances during the race causes extreme problems with providing accurate results and delays our ability to post them in a timely fashion. If you switch distances during the trail race (typically 10 miler to 5 miler) your time will not count for any awards.
Free bus shuttle into the park: if you would rather not pay the $7 park entry fee, you can take the Everyone Runs' complimentary shuttle into the park. It will be located just across the street on Oracle Rd. next to the Red Lobster at the Oro Valley Marketplace. The bus will leave at 4:50 a.m. 5:10 a.m., 5:30 a.m., 5:50 a.m. and 6:25 a.m. if needed (only for 5k).
If you are running the 10 miler or 5k, or registering at the race, do not take the 6:10 or 6:30. Your race starts at 6:30 a.m. The 5 Miler starts at 6:50 a.m.
We will be selling 100 of the $7 parking passes packet pick-up.

NEW AMAZING COURSE
TMC Veterans Day Half Marathon & 5k
NOVEMBER 12, 2017
7:15 a.m.Event Details
The Everyone Runs November 12 Tucson Medical Center Veterans Day Half Marathon and 5k has found a new home. It will unquestionably be Tucson’s premier and most beautiful course, running in the majestic Tucson Mountain Park starting & finishing at Old Tucson!
You’ll want to make this Fall half marathon your goal race for the season and plan it as a part of your training, as the course will be challenging. With the beauty of this area, nice roads, and hardly a building or home in site, this will be the Fall half marathon and 5k that you’ll want to run. The sign-up link is just to your right.
Your half marathon will start at Old Tucson (same start line as July 9 Run with the Roosters Kinney Rd. 5 Miler). The course will travel north on Kinney Rd., passing the Desert Museum and then heading west to your turnaround at Sandario Rd. On your return, you will run approximately 1.5 miles and then head southeast on McCain Loop Rd., where the magnificent cactus and tree lined Tucson Mountain Park will open-up to you in full glory! At the end of McCain Loop, you will head back on Kinney Rd. to your finish at Old Tucson.
Yes, as you will see in our map below, this course features many hills and steady grades, but that means there are fast downhills, too! Click on this map for the full view.
This course will be USATF certified!
Make your Everyone Runs Veterans Day races a great weekend event with discounted resort rooms at the JW Marriott Starr Pass. Your start line at Old Tucson is just a short 15 minutes away!
Simply reserve your room by Friday, October 20th, and you’ll get a nice discounted rate of $159 per night and $10 off the $20 resort fee. Make your reservation online, or call toll free at 1-877-622-3140 and ask for the Everyone Runs discounted room block.
Important Race Information
The half marathon will be open only to runners and those who do run/walk intervals. Walkers will be accepted in the 5k, but not the half. The 5k course will be just as beautiful and is a simple out and back on Kinney Rd.
Please feel free to email us back with any questions at everyoneruns@comcast.net.
