About the Sun Run: La Primera 5K/10K Roadrace with FitKidz Mile
The course runs a scenic loop along the Santa Cruz River Path through the Sweetwater Riparian area, with gently rolling hills that give it a different feel from a typical out-and-back. Danny Lopez Park anchors the start and finish, and the riparian surroundings make this stretch of Tucson feel quieter than a road race usually does.
Packet pickup runs the morning before the race at The Running Shop on Campbell Avenue, with race-morning pickup available as a backup if you miss it. A kids' mile follows after the main races wrap up, so families tend to stick around past the finish.

The Sun Run: La Primera 5K/10K Roadrace with FitKidz Mile has been held every year since at least 2022. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 25, 2026.
