About

Welcome to the PhoMo 50K, an exciting trail race that winds through the picturesque Phoenix Mountain Preserves. Runners will navigate this challenging course starting from the Piestewa Peak Trailhead, tackling rocky and technical terrain with over 6,000 feet of elevation gain. Participants should be ready for minimal shade, as most sections leave you exposed to the elements. The course will not be marked, but GPX coordinates will help guide your journey, and hydration is crucial, given the distance between aid stations. Aid stations are positioned at the 9.9 and 26.2-mile marks, ensuring support at key trailheads. While crew access is allowed at designated spots, it's essential to carry your own hydration and nutrition throughout the race. Be prepared for an unforgettable experience that showcases the natural beauty of Phoenix while testing your endurance on this demanding course.
