Run Arizona’s classic 50K footrace from Lake Pleasant to the old mining town of Crown King.
You’ll start on the shores of beautiful Lake Pleasant, run through the heart of the Sonoran Desert and climb your way through scrub brush, junipers and ultimately to the cool pines of the Bradshaw Mountains! From Spines to Pines, the finish line at the historic Crown King Saloon awaits you.
