Arizona runners don't stop running as the temperatures rise
we just get started a little earlier!
Why run in just one event when you can save so much by registering for the entire Series!
And don't forget - this is a StartLine Racing Series which means big prizes!!
Get points for every event you complete, with extra points being awarded based on your age group and overall finish.
At the end of the series the top 100 point earners, plus all participants that complete at least 4 of the 7 series events,
will be entered into our Arizona Sunrise Series Prize Drawing.
Along with great prizes from StartLine and our sponsors, three people will walk away with a $500 gift card
(which we suggest you use to get out of the Phoenix heat!)
Overall awards will be given out at the end of the series on August 10th.
Check out the full Arizona Sunrise Series Rules and Regulations here.

Charitable Partner
The 2024 Arizona Sunrise Series serves as a fundraiser for St. Mary's Food Bank.
In Arizona, food insecurity is a problem 2 million Arizonans are faced with every year. Nearly 30% of our neighbors in need are considered working poor, living on wages that barely cover housing and other basic necessities.
Food Distribution:
St. Mary’s Food Bank distributes food to over 800 partner agencies, covering 81,000 sq miles of Arizona. These agencies include food pantries, dining halls, shelters for the unhoused community, and more.
Children’s Feeding Programs:
One in four children in Arizona lives in poverty and is at risk of going to bed at night hungry. Arizona ranks 47th out of 50 states in the number of children who may not know where their next meal is coming from. Our vision is to see that no child goes to bed hungry, so they can live healthy and productive lives. In response to these needs, St. Mary’s Food Bank operates programs that fight child hunger, including Kids Cafe® and the Backpack Program.
Children’s Feeding Programs:
We offer two Skills Center Programs: LIFT and Community Kitchen. These programs are meant for those who have employment barriers and gives them the opportunity to gain the skills necessary to get jobs offering livable wages, benefits, and opportunities for advancement through hands-on food service or warehouse training as well as classroom studies.
Every $1 donated provides those neighbors with enough food for 5 meals!
