About the Sunnyside Fun Run and Walk - 5k and One-Mile
The race takes place at Mission Manor Park in Tucson, with several distance options running back to back through the morning. The feel is closer to a community health event than a road race, with a health fair running alongside the timed portions and a kids dash woven into the schedule before the longer distances go off.
Water and snacks are out before and after the race. There is also a raffle at the end, though you need to be present to win. Pets are not allowed on the premises, so plan accordingly.
