SAVE THE DATE: 2027 Rancho Sahuarita Lakeside Run - 5K and Fun Walk

August 19 Update: We're gearing up for the 2nd Annual Lakeside 5k -- registration will open soon!

Powered through a partnership with the incredible team at Run Tucson, this event will include a scenic 5K run route that winds through the picturesque community of Rancho Sahuarita, and a 1 mile Fun Walk around Sahuarita Lake. 

Proceeds from the event will benefit Diamond Children’s Medical Center, supporting their vital mission to provide critical pediatric care to children across Southern Arizona when they need it most. 

Families are invited to enjoy entertainment in our Family Play Area before and during the race, and all participants can relax and celebrate in the post-race area following the event.
Come celebrate community, family, and fun—all while supporting an incredible cause. We can’t wait to see you - Lakeside! 🏃‍♀️🌊
