We believe…
We believe that running can make our communities better places to live. While we use the sport of running to bring people together and raise the human spirit, we recognize that not everyone can run, jog, even walk in safety, without fear.
We believe that running in safety on community trails and public roadways is a human right.
We believe us that all of us have a commitment to ensuring human rights, and we at Run Tucson pledge to strengthen our efforts at ensuring human rights for all.
We are running coaches.
From the 5k to the marathon (and beyond), we’ll help you accomplish your goals… even if you don’t know what they are yet.
We can set up an individualized program for you. We can provide a group program. We can provide proven training programs and proven motivational leadership to help you accomplish your goals.
