    Sedona AZ  (December 19, 2011) – Time is running out!   The Sedona Marathon regular registration rates expire December 31st at midnight, participants who register after that will be paying the late registration fee.   Saturday, February 4, 2012, the Sedona Chamber of Commerce, along with the entire Sedona area, will welcome thousands of runners, their families and friends for a weekend of fierce competition and neighborly camaraderie.  One of the signature community events in Sedona, each year runners and walkers come from near and far to take part in the week-long festivities.

    More than 2,000 runners and walkers will participate in 5K, 10K, Half or Full Marathon races which will take the racers through the scenic Coconino National Forest District, known for its magical red rock formations, and onto the streets of what Good Morning America has chosen as one of the Top 10 most beautiful cities in the United States. Spectators, supporters and participants will also be treated to an expo featuring vendors, artists and live performers that will entertain and inspire.  Other Sedona Marathon events include a special training clinic on February 2th with Team USA Arizona Coach Greg McMillan and his team of potential Olympians, independent film Hood to Coast in partnership with the Sedona Film Festival and a traditional pasta feed sponsored by the Sedona Chamber of Commerce. For a full listing of events please go to www.sedonamarathon.com.

    During its six-year history, the Sedona Marathon has quickly gained international recognition, not only for its breathtaking course but also as training opportunity.  It has drawn several Olympic competitors including Beijing Triathlon Silver Medal winner Simon Whitfield and 2012 Olympic hopeful Ryan Hall. Japanese sports reporter Hajime Nishi has named the event one of his top ten favorite worldwide marathons, and National Geographic Adventurer Magazine featured it as one of the great “instant weekend adventures.”

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
