Cocodona Virtual Experience

To celebrate the second year of Aravaipa's iconic 250-mile trail race, the Cocodona 250, we're bringing a slice of Arizona to you! Inspired by the week-long in-person event, the Cocodona Virtual Experience is your chance to rack up 250+ miles on your local trails or treadmill, starting the same day the in-person racers hit the trail. For our virtual runners, the party goes on all month, and then some. You'll have five weeks to log your total distance, with exciting milestones up for the taking along the way as you run virtually from Black Canyon City to Flagstaff, AZ.

This event is truly a journey unlike any other. Each week during the event, runners will be guided on their journey through the Cocodona 250 course by receiving a weekly email detailing sections of the course in roughly 50 mile sections. These check-ins will include photos from the race course, and produced video content, and more to help give you a fully immersive experience from wherever you are in the world.
