Arizona 5K
Race Day Weather
Comfortable temps, big temp swing
Mild 50°F temps at gun time mean comfortable early miles without overheating risk. Temps will climb significantly to 72°F by later miles, so expect fading conditions as the race progresses. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing.

Race Info
The Arizona 5K starts and finishes at Rio Vista Park in Peoria, Arizona and follows the paved asphalt and concrete paths of the New River Trail System out to a turnaround and back. The route is flat and fast, with under 20 meters of total climbing. It shares the Sunday morning of race weekend with the half marathon and 10K, and the trails stay open to other users.
