PVSchools Community 5K Fun Run/Walk
The PVSchools Community 5K Fun Run/Walk takes place on January 31, 2026 at the Horizon High School football field in Scottsdale, AZ (5601 E Greenway Rd, 85254). The event is listed as the 16th year and aims to raise awareness and encourage district employees, their families, and the community to adopt a healthy, active lifestyle. Entry fee is $10; ages 0-10 register at no cost. Registrants must choose a school or site during registration so each location can compete. No refunds will be issued. T-shirts (sizes S to XXL and limited youth sizes) are provided the day of the event to registered participants; a registration deadline to guarantee a shirt is given as January 17, 2025, and participants must attend the event to receive their shirt. The race is chip-timed by Race Timers and results will be posted on PVUSD's website. A small online registration fee is charged by the registration platform.
