Broken Arrow Skyrace is an annual three-day, eight distance sky running race series held at Palisades Tahoe in the North Lake Tahoe region of California.

The Broken Arrow Skyrace features eight events spread over three days: the Vertical Kilometer (VK), "Iron Face Challenge" which includes a section of via ferrata climbing, 11 kilometres (6.8 mi), 18 kilometres (11 mi), 23 kilometres (14 mi), 46 kilometres (29 mi), Triple Crown (VK+23k+46k), Iron Crown (Iron Face+23k+46k), and a kids race.[1]

Broken Arrow races are unique in California as most of the terrain is above tree line, with significant parts of the course still snowbound in some high precipitation years.[2] The race begins at the same location and on part of the same course as the Western States Endurance Run.[3] Founded in 2016, the race has grown to host thousands of participants including many international runners and an elite field.[4][5] In 2024, the VK and 23k were the host race for the Mountain Running World Cup.[6]
