17th Annual Pecan Classic 10K and 5K Run/Walk

The Pecan Classic is a 5K and 10K run/walk in Sahuarita, Arizona, beginning at the Green Valley Pecan Company. This yearly Southern Arizona race coincides with the pecan harvest season, marked by yellowing leaves, drying husks, and typically more comfortable running weather. Participants can select either the 5K or 10K distance, accommodating those aiming for a 10K challenge and those preferring a shorter community run. The Southern Arizona Roadrunners, a non-profit organization that hosts local fitness events in the Tucson area, organizes the race. Proceeds from the Pecan Classic benefit a local non-profit.

Welcome to the 21st Annual Vail Jingle Trail!

The Vail Jingle Trail, a holiday-themed run and walk in Vail, Arizona, focuses on Mica Mountain High School and its cross country program. Now in its 21st year, it continues a Tucson-and-Vail holiday running tradition and supports a local toy drive. The route largely follows the Mica Mountain Cross Country course, with minor adjustments possible based on event setup. Mica Mountain cross country runners will be stationed along the course to provide directions and encouragement. Participants are asked to bring a new, unwrapped toy. The event collaborates with the Vail School District Transportation Department to collect over 500 toys for Toys for Tots, aiming to fill a school bus.

Empire Ranch Trail Run

The Empire Ranch Trail Run takes place in January at Historic Empire Ranch, located within the Las Cienegas National Conservation Area. The course winds through mud and cattle-country trails on historic ranch grounds. Participants can choose from a 10k trail run, a 5k trail run/walk, or a 1-mile family walk/run. Run Tucson, in partnership with the Empire Ranch Foundation and the Bureau of Land Management, organizes this event. Organizers note it is the first running event held at the ranch. The course is set on protected ranch land, promising a trail experience with natural elements like mud and cow pies. The event supports the Empire Ranch Foundation's efforts to preserve and restore the ranch's historic structures and landscape. Beyond the race, attendees can enjoy family ranch activities, leather-branding demonstrations, and a presentation contrasting cinematic cowboy attire with historical accuracy. All finishers receive shirts, snacks, photos, and videos. Awards are given for overall and age-group categories, with additional prizes including gift certificates from The Running Shop.

About 5K races in Sierra Vista-Douglas

Sierra Vista-Douglas Training Notes

Sierra Vista-Douglas hosts 7 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Sierra Vista runners keep the daily work close to the parks, washes, and marked city routes. 5K route for easy laps or short intervals. City Park Route gives you a full 10K when the legs need more than maintenance miles. Country Club Park, Domingo Paiz, Tompkins Park, and Soldier Creek Park cover the 5K-and-under days. The Brown Canyon Loop runs 69 km and gains 103 m when you want honest hills. The Warrior Resolve 5K Series anchors the local road calendar with Rise to Duty 5K, Grit and Resolve 5K, and Victory Run 5k.

Sierra Vista riders get more than 30 miles of multi-use pathways plus marked bicycle lanes, so base miles can start right in town. Cochise Vista Trail rolls 23 miles with 781 ft of elevation past Pueblo del Sol Country Club, Veterans Park, and University of Arizona South. Sierra Vista West gives locals an easy 11 mile ride through neighborhoods, parks, and back-alley paths on the west side. The climb is 5 miles and 2,260 ft. Mule Pass, Miller Canyon, Brown Canyon, and Hunter Canyon hold the climbs, and Hummingbird Triathlon, Sky Island Tour 2026, and Sonoran Shred XCO State Champs keep the race calendar sharp.

Winter is the money season here for running and riding, because the sun exposure and lower elevation make steady Z2 feel normal. Summer rides still happen, but locals respect hot or windy days and keep the effort honest. Morning runs fit better then, and park routes make it easy to bail, reload, or turn intervals into shorter work. Winter changes the mood for both sports, because long road miles, gravel loops, singletrack, and hill repeats all get easier to schedule. Locals stack base miles, test the climbs, and save the harder hammer days for routes that stay fun when the weather cooperates.
