About

2026 Course Maps Posted! ~ We are back to the ORIGINAL LOOP! Wave Starts The event will use "wave" starts beginning with slower teams at 7:00 a.m. and progressing to faster teams starting at 10:00 a.m. This allows all teams to finish in time to enjoy the band, food and fun. Wave 1 - 0700 (bibs in the 100's start in wave 1) Wave 2 - 0830 (bis in the 200's start in wave 2) Wave 3 - 1000 (bibs in the 300's start in wave 3) There is nothing else like it in Tucson~a running relay on The Loop. What's the "Loop"? The Chuck Huckelberry Loop is 120+ miles of paved, shared-use paths that connect the Rillito, Santa Cruz, and Pantano River Parks with the Julian Wash and Harrison Road Greenways. However, in 2025, due to the ongoing Sunset bridge construction, the RAT will utilize the Rillito and Canyon Del Oro Washes. The RunAround Tucson will use 50 miles of the Loop and its segment partners. View the map to see the event's course. How Does the Relay Work? This is a supported relay race with Nine Exchanges (10 running legs (11 if using "unofficial" exchange 6A)). The relay Starts and Finishes at Rillito Park. Distances between the Exchanges vary from 2.75 miles to 7 miles. 2026 Exchange Legs (subject to change) ~ Updated November 18, 2025 Leg 1 - Rillito Park to Curtis Park ~ 4.4 miles Leg 2 - Curtis Park to Camino del Cerro Park ~ 4.61 milesLeg 3 - Camino del Cerro Park to Juhan Park ~ 3.7 milesLeg 4 - Juhan Park to Paseos de la Iglecius Park and Ride Lot (Silverlake) ~ 5.04 milesLeg 5 - Park and Ride Lot to Augie Acuna Los Ninos Park ~ 6.86 miles Leg 6 - Augie Acuna to Old Vail Road Park and Ride Lot ~ 8.61 miles This leg can be broken into 2 legs by exchanging at Roy Schooner Park (details to follow) Leg 7 - Old Vail Rd to Fantasy Island ~ 5.16 milesLeg 8 - Fantasy Island to Christ Community Church ~ 4.81 milesLeg 9 - Christ Community Church to Pantano Park and Ride Lot ~ 4.18 milesLeg 10 - Pantano Park and Ride to Rillito Park ~ 6.72 miles What Constitutes a "Team"?
