Rock 'n' Roll Arizona Marathon takes new shape as elite series event

The 2023 Rock 'n' Roll Arizona Marathon is the penultimate event in the new Rock 'n' Roll Elite Series.

Last February — just three weeks after the 2022 Rock 'n' Roll Arizona Marathon — the Rock ‘n’ Roll Running Series announced a new half marathon series, labeled as the Elite Series.

This weekend, the new Elite Series rolls into Tempe for the Rock ‘n’ Roll Arizona Marathon. Organizers expect approximately 13,000 runners to participate in the events, which begin with a 5K on Saturday and conclude with a 10K, half marathon and full marathon on Sunday. In 2022-23, the Elite Series consists of nine races, beginning with the Las Vegas marathon last February and traveling through D.C., Nashville, Atlantic City, San Diego, San Jose and Savannah. Now, in the final race before next month’s grand finale in Las Vegas, the series heads to Arizona for the first time.
