The Harvest Hustle 5K & Dog Walk is an annual fundraiser held at Norwayne Field to benefit Hope Restored Recovery Home in North Judson, Indiana. The event includes a 5K race for runners and walkers, with a dog walk starting shortly after. Race-day registration is available in the morning. Runners begin first, followed by walkers, and then participants with dogs. The event is designed for families and racers alike. All ages are welcome, and children five and under can participate for free. Awards will be presented to the first male, female, and child to finish. Every registered participant receives a t-shirt, and dogs participating in the dog walk receive a bandana. Following the race, the field will feature live music, face painting, bounce houses, and food vendors. Dogs must be kept on leashes no longer than six feet and require current vaccinations; proof is only needed if an incident occurs.

The Gobble Gallop is a Thanksgiving morning race in Duluth, Minnesota, hosted by Duluth Running Company as a decades-long Northland tradition. Around 1,800 runners participate in a set of short, family-friendly events: the Gobble Gallop 5K, the Tough Turkey 1-Mile, and the Gobble Giddy Up! Kids Run. The race draws people who treat it as part of the holiday itself, including families with children who started coming before they were old enough to run on their own. One runner first joined as a 13-month-old in a stroller and later returned for the Tough Turkey 1-Mile, while his dad and sister raced too. The mood is built around starting Thanksgiving active, often in cold morning weather, and part of the race proceeds benefit Safe Haven.

Das Christmas in the Park ist ein Rennen, das im Dezember im Deming Park, 500 S Fruitridge Ave, Terre Haute, Indiana, stattfindet. Gesponsert wird das Ganze von Chick-fil-A of Terre Haute und es ist mit den Wabash Valley Road Runners verbunden. Angeboten werden ein 5K Lauf, ein 5K Walk und für die Jugend ein 1-mile Rennen, das Reindeer Romp heißt. Die Einnahmen gehen an Clothe a Child, wobei die Hälfte der Gelder direkt an die Organisation fließt. Das Reindeer Romp geht schon los, bevor die 5K-Wettbewerbe starten. Der 5K Lauf und Walk fangen dann später an. Beim 5K können sowohl Erwachsene als auch Jugendliche mitmachen, das Reindeer Romp ist aber nur für die Jugend gedacht. Es gibt Auszeichnungen für die Gesamtsieger, in 5-year Altersklassen und extra für die Walker. Wichtig: Wer beim Walk mitmacht, sollte nicht rennen, da die Walker separat gewertet werden.
