Start:  Drive to US 191 Junction on I-10                 (95 miles; Elevation: 4320 ft.)

         North on US 191 to Swift Trail Junction          (24 miles; El. change:-1080 ft.)

         West on AZ 366 (Swift Trail) to end of road   (22 miles; El. change:+5920 ft.)

         Dismount and run trail to peak                    (5 miles;El. change:+1480 ft.;Elevation:10640 ft. )

         Turn around and go back     

The total trip would be 92 miles on the bike with 7000 ft. of climbing and 10 miles running and ~1500 ft. climbing.  Mt. Graham seems like a nice break from climbing Mt. Lemmon, Kitt Peak or Mt. Wrightston.  The only annoying part would be the drive at the beginning, but we can carpool.

You guys are crazy!  I don't know about it, but I will try it if you do.  I can feel the sunburn now.
