Hosted annually by the Shun the Sun Foundation, the 17th Gilbert Half Marathon returns on 22 November 2025 along a flat, PR-friendly course that begins and ends at Verde @ Cooley Station, a vibrant mixed‑use development offering post-race community engagement. The race weekend features multiple chip-timed options—Half Marathon, 10K, 5K, Kids’ Run—and virtual participation, each awarding a commemorative medal and technical shirt, with pacing groups available and a 3.5-hour cutoff for the half. Proceeds support education and early detection efforts against skin cancer, and participants can access amenities like gear check, pacers (1:30–2:30), expo/packet pickup at Verde@Cooley Station, and discounts with local businesses.
