Sloth Run 5K/10K/13.1 PHOENIX

Experience running like never before with an event designed for those who appreciate leisure and community over speed and competition. This race is all about enjoying the journey, connecting with fellow runners, and creating memorable moments.
The race offers various distance options including a 5K, 10K, half-marathon, or even a virtual run to fit any runner's preference. With waves starting at 7:00 AM, 7:30 AM, and 8:00 AM on April 10, 2027, participants can choose the perfect time that suits their schedule without worrying about crowded race-day crowds.
Each wave is carefully managed to ensure a personal touch for every participant. Once you sign up, your swag—including a running T-shirt and finisher's medal—will be shipped directly to your door (U.S. only), eliminating long lines at packet pickup. If registering last minute within two weeks of the race date, there might be a slight delay in receiving your shirt before April 10.
The event prides itself on inclusivity, welcoming runners of all ages and paces—whether you're sprinting or taking it slow with a guardian for those under 18. Timing is optional; participants can track their own progress using apps like Strava or RunKeeper and submit results through an easy online form to be posted alongside others.
In addition to the race, runners gain access to local running clubs to continue building momentum post-race. The event also offers a lightweight moisture-wicking technical shirt upgrade for just $5 more at registration.
The course itself is designed with scenic routes that highlight beautiful landscapes and neighborhoods, ensuring participants have plenty of opportunities to take in the surroundings while enjoying their run. Coordinators are on-site throughout each wave to cheer runners on and provide support as needed.
For those who prefer flexibility or can't make it on race day, a virtual option allows you to complete your chosen distance anytime leading up to April 10, with results sent via email for validation.
Join us in celebrating community spirit, personal achievement, and the joy of running without pressure. Whether you're a seasoned runner looking for something different or someone who just wants to enjoy an easy-paced day out, this event promises a unique experience tailored specifically for you.
Participants can also explore additional perks such as race bundles offering discounts on multiple races, sponsorship opportunities for businesses aiming to connect with the running community, and volunteer roles within Team Glo Volunteers.
