About the Sunrise Series!
The Sunrise Series moves through El Paso event by event, each one set at a different location across the city. The distance stays the same throughout, so the race format is familiar, but the neighborhood changes each time. Dogs on leashes are welcome on the course, and so are strollers and wheelchairs.
Packet pickup happens the evening before each event, at a location announced closer to race day. There is no race-morning option, so arriving without your bib means contacting the race director in advance. Post-race, each event runs a full expo with vendors, music, paletas, raffles, and a sponsored photo booth.

The Sunrise Series! has been held every year since at least 2025. 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 Sep 10, 2026.
