The Monster Dash

The Monster Dash 5K is an annual nighttime run/walk event held at the Arizona Boardwalk in Scottsdale, AZ. Participants can enjoy a 5K course featuring roaming monsters and mummies, creating a spooky and fun atmosphere perfect for costume wearers. The event welcomes runners, walkers, wheelchairs, strollers, and leashed pets, but prohibits bicycles and motorized devices.

It offers chip timing with real-time results, age group awards, and pre- and post-race snacks. A virtual run option is also available for those who wish to participate remotely. Packet pickup is available the day before and on race night.

The event is organized by StartLine Racing. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
