Desert Runner Trail Series - Fall Pass
The Desert Runner Trail Series Fall Pass is a set of trail races organized by Aravaipa Running. The series begins on October 17, 2026, with an event in Cave Creek, AZ, and includes additional race dates on November 14 and December 5. The Fall Pass offers a 20 percent reduction compared with individual race entries.
The event program includes multiple distance categories for the October 17 race and the series overall:
- Ultra 50 km
- Long 24 km to 25 km
- Middle 10 km to 10 mile
- Short 5 km to 5 mile
The series expands its cupless events to reduce race waste. UltrAspire reusable cups will be available at registration and on race day, and participants may bring their own cups.
The Sonoran Desert Cup is a points competition that runs across eight sub-ultra races in the Desert Runner Trail Series. Runners earn points by finish place at each event, with the Grand Final at Dam Good Run carrying extra weight and final series champions named Cactus King and Cactus Queen.
