Course Description:
Step into action at Kiwanis Park in your EMS gear for a cause that truly matters. The Arizona Trauma Association invites you to participate in the annual Tackle Trauma 5K Race and Fundraiser—where every stride helps save lives, fund research, and raise awareness about trauma.

Virtual Participation:
Can’t make it to Tempe? No problem! Join virtually and complete your 5K from anywhere. Virtual participants will still receive a race packet including a neon themed t-shirt and race bib.
Traumatic injuries don’t discriminate—they’re the leading cause of death for children and adults up to age 46. Your participation supports injury prevention, education, and research efforts aimed at reducing trauma-related fatalities across Arizona.
By joining, you’re not just running—you’re raising awareness, supporting trauma care, and contributing to a healthier, safer future for our community.
