Where the runners of the University of Arizona come together!
Information
The WRC is perfect for runners of all levels - for those who want to get into running or for those who have been running for years. We meet 5-6 days a week and go student-lead runs around campus anywhere from 3 to 20 miles (some of us trained for a marathon last year, so this wasn't too normal). We also have destination runs where we go off campus to run at Sabino Canyon, Saguaro National Forest, and Reid Park. Plus we participate in local road races around the Tucson area. This year we have 2 major events in planning - a training program for the PF Chang's Rock N Roll Marathon & 1/2 Marathon and the Ragnar Relays. On top of all this, we meet outside of running for BBQs, pasta dinners and pizza parties.
Need a training program? Here is the one for you

Spring Semester Events
OFFICIAL CALENDER OF EVENTS
VALENTINE'S DAY RACE
A 4-mile individual race or couple's relay on 2/15 on the UA campus. The race course brings you to the football stadium and up the ramps! Pretty cool and only $15 day-of-race. Here is a link for more details.
RAGNAR RELAY
Saguaro cactus, red rock cliffs, live bands, and biker bars. Your team of 12 maniacs will run around the clock in this springtime relay through the Arizona desert. While this 182-miler only runs from Wickenburg to Mesa, the inside jokes may last forever.
GOOD LUCK to TEAM WILDCAT -- Quinn, Lauren, Liz, Nikki, Brian, Natasha, Kathleen, Michelle, Dustin, Jamal, Elyssa!!
