About the Labor of Love Marathon
Labor of Love is a road race held in Lovell Canyon, part of the Spring Mountains National Recreation Area, where temperatures run about 10 degrees cooler than the Las Vegas Valley. Joshua trees, pinyon-juniper and sagebrush line the canyon road.
Aravaipa Running organizes the event, which also offers a 50K, half, 10K and 5K. There are no concessions at the venue, so spectators should bring their own food and water.
