Sprinters of all sorts converge to share pleasure and pain (and Gatorade and pizza) during the Arizona Road Racers Open Mile. Founded in 1970, the Arizona Road Racers are a non-profit organization involved in hundreds of races each year, from 5Ks to 50-milers.
Lace up for your choice of two one-mile timed heats (or race both).
