Old Pueblo Endurance Runs
Old Pueblo Endurance Runs is a trail ultramarathon held in Sonoita, Arizona on Saturday, March 6, 2027. The event features long-distance trail courses run on the flanks of the Santa Rita Mountains and along the Arizona Trail.
The race began in 1985 and has used different routes and formats over the years while remaining in the Santa Rita Mountains. The course starts at the historic mining site of Kentucky Camp and travels into the rugged terrain near Mt. Wrightson, which rises to 9452' and remains visible from much of the route. The event highlights local trail history and the same trails used by early Native Americans, ranchers, farmers, migrants, and miners.
Distances offered:
- 50 miles
- 50 kilometers (50K)
Old Pueblo is part of regional race series and partnerships.
