Saguaro Showdown
The Saguaro Showdown is a unique endurance event held at Usery Mountain Regional Park in Mesa, Arizona. It features both running and rucking races on local trails, with runners completing 4.1667-mile laps and ruckers 2.3-mile laps. The race follows the backyard ultra format, where participants start a new lap every hour and must finish within that hour to continue.
The event continues until only one runner and one rucker remain, who then complete a final lap to win. The course shifts to an out-and-back road loop overnight. Participants receive event T-shirts, and winners earn special awards.
Overnight camping and crew support are allowed. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
