About this event

Experience the beauty of White Tank Mountain Regional Park on an array of fun and fast courses at the Vertigo Night Runs, the fifth race of the Insomniac Night Trail Run Series. The 6K is perfect for first time night trail runners, and the 52K will push anyone ready to test the ultra distance.

The longer races are laps of the 6.5 mile (10.4 km) Sonoran Competitive Track loop, which tests every skill with steep inclines, swooping turns, technical descents and rugged terrain. The 52K starts at 7:00 PM, leaves on its final loop by 3:00 AM and finishes by the 5:00 AM overall cutoff.

Carpe Noctem: seize the night.
