The Night Run Course

courses rival any, anywhere. The courses traverse both banks of Tempe Town
Lake with its stunning panoramic scenery and includes Tempe Center for the
Arts, iconic pedestrian bridge, Tempe Beach Park and Mill Avenue on a
Saturday night! There is a place for everyone at The Night Run. Strollers, fun-walkers, first-time racers, parents, grandparents, volunteers, and hard-core runners alike can come together and succeed, and enjoy a wonderful May evening in a unique setting.
Come early to enjoy our popular "Owl's Nest" Expo before the
5K,
8K, or
Kids Dash (8 & under), stay late and
celebrate on Mill Avenue!
