Get ready to hit the ground running! The P.F. Chang’s Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon is back and better than ever before with some great new features in 2015. A 5K race has been added to the mix and will take place Saturday, Jan. 17 at 8 a.m. at Tempe Beach Park. In another exciting change this year, the mini-marathon is now an official 10K course and a timed race! Participants in the mini-marathon will take their positions at the start line with half-marathon runners on Sunday, Jan. 18. Finishers for both races receive a medal, bib and t-shirt. All participants who complete the full marathon on Sunday will receive a new and exclusive finisher’s jacket. The Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon series is famous for its fabulous entertainment and this year’s event is no exception. For the first time in Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon series history, the finish line will feature a double headliner! The Wallflowers will play for the bulk of the half-marathon finishers, and OK GO will play for the marathon finishers. Of course, local bands will play live on entertainment stages along every mile and cheerleaders will also line the course. With a dynamic combination of motivation and great music, runners can’t help but continue to pound the pavement and rock their way from start to finish! Runners will also have much to look forward to after the race, from celebrating at the finish line festival to indulging in a massage treatment once the hard work is done. Select area spas are pampering runners with 50-minute massage for just $75! Check out the Massage Monday section for all of the details. Scottsdale is located just a few miles from the finish line and most headquarter hotels offer shuttle service to and from the start and finish lines. We invite you to make Scottsdale your race headquarters and enjoy a full weekend of sun, fun and relaxation!from Official Travel Site for Scottsdale, Arizona | http://ift.tt/13TtrJQ
