The Leftovers 10K

The Leftovers 10K / 5K Run takes place in Tempe, Arizona, at 101 West Baseline Road, typically the Saturday after Thanksgiving. This festive event offers both 10K and 5K distances, including a virtual run option. It emphasizes fun and community spirit, encouraging participants to "burn off the leftovers" from Thanksgiving.

Runners receive a previous StartLine event shirt and finisher's medal, with opportunities to trade shirts for variety. The course is stroller, walker, and leashed pet friendly, and chip timing with real-time results is provided. Participants also enjoy a pre- and post-race "Runner's Brunch" and are encouraged to bring nonperishable food donations for local food banks.
