Welcome to the 2nd Annual Albuquerque Running Fiesta!

November 1, 2026 • Albuquerque, New Mexico
Locally Owned. Locally Organized. Locally Loved.

The Fiesta is back - and we’re turning the volume UP! 
After an incredible first year, we’re building something even bigger for 2026: more runners, more entertainment, more community involvement, and a finish-line celebration... If you thought last year was fun… just wait.

Run through the heart of Albuquerque, surrounded by desert beauty, vibrant culture, and the unstoppable spirit of New Mexico. Whether you’re chasing a PR, crossing your very first finish line, or making this your favorite tradition with friends and family, you belong at the Fiesta.

Choose your challenge: Marathon, Half Marathon, 5K, or Kids Mile
All races will be USATF-certified, professionally timed, and packed with music, cheer squads, photo ops, and fiesta vibes from start to finish.

All Participants Receive:
Premium finisher medal • Fiesta race shirt • Chip timing • Finish-line party access

We’re proud to be an event built by the local community for the local community: supporting youth programs, celebrating local businesses, and showcasing Albuquerque at its best.

Full schedule, registration details, course maps, and surprises are coming soon…
But for now, mark your calendar, gather your crew, and get ready to fiesta!
