In recognition of Memorial Day, we will have reduced hours, from 10 am-2 pm, on Monday, 5/25.
Memorial Day started off as a somber day of remembrance; a day when Americans went to cemeteries and placed flags or flowers on the graves of our war dead. It is a day to remember ancestors, family members, and loved ones who gave the ultimate sacrifice. We are not indifferent in our thoughts to the purpose and meaning of the day. How do we honor the 1.8 million that gave their life for America since 1775? How do we thank them for their sacrifice? We observe Memorial Day as one day of many to remember and reflect.

Join us and Run Tucson for a demo run with HOKA! We’ll have shoes available to test run, along with cold drinks, pizza, and great company.

This is a perfect chance to get in an evening training run before the TMC Meet Me Downtown 5K and Festival of Miles. And don’t forget the FREE HOKA High School and Middle School Mile!
