The Riverdale Temple FALL OF LOVE 5K/10K Run/Walk is a Bronx race held at Riverdale Temple on Independence Avenue, offering 5K and 10K distances for runners and walkers. The main races begin at 8:43 AM, preceded by a free Toddler Dash at 8:00 AM. This event is in its early stages, with the upcoming edition marking the third running. The course winds through the rolling hills of Riverdale, presenting a challenging route rather than a flat path. Riverdale Temple welcomes runners, walkers, volunteers, newcomers, and experienced participants. Race-day registration opens early, parking is available at the venue, and packet pickup is available on Friday and Saturday prior to the event.

The Clinton Road Zombie Run takes participants down one of New Jersey's most discussed haunted roads, offering three options: a costumed Zombie Crawl, a 5k run, and a 10k run. This road and trail event is themed around Clinton Road's eerie reputation, incorporating its dark woods, misty sections, and zombie volunteers into the race day. The Zombie Crawl is a walk/run for those prioritizing the theme over intense competition, with costumes recommended. The 5k is the shorter, quicker run through the haunted woods, while the 10k provides the full endurance challenge. Along the route, volunteers in zombie costumes interact with participants through chasing, cheering, and startling, and even the aid stations are given a haunted theme.

The Tarrywile Half Marathon is a November trail race held in Tarrywile Park, Danbury, Connecticut, featuring exclusively unpaved park trails. The event includes a 10K, half marathon, and marathon, all utilizing a consistent hard loop structure: one loop for the 10K, two for the half, and four for the marathon. This course is not a road race with some dirt; it consists of Northeast single track, rocky and rooty sections, and sufficient climbing to significantly slow runners compared to their typical road pace. The 10K involves approximately 1,500 feet of climbing, the half marathon around 3,000 feet, and the marathon reaches about 6,000 feet of elevation gain. Participants gain viewpoints over Danbury and the park's lakes, though these require navigating technical, hilly trails. Hikers and walkers are permitted in the 10K and half marathon provided they can finish within the seven-hour time limit. The event maintains a small scale with a 250-person limit. The half marathon also features a standing cash challenge: bonuses are awarded to the first man finishing under 1:45 and the first woman under 2:00, with the prize pool increasing annually until claimed.

The Westchester Turkey Trot is a Thanksgiving morning 5K and 10K run/walk held at Westchester Community College in Valhalla, New York.

Northwell Orthopedics sponsors the event, with official information available on TriStateRuns.com. The race is designed for families and regular runners alike. Children 11 and under can enter a 5K Kid's Division Fun Run, which includes an untimed bib and a donut at the finish line. Younger children, 8 and under, can participate in a free 100-meter dash held earlier. Participants are invited to share race-day photos using #TurkeyTradition, reflecting the event's place as a local holiday tradition before Thanksgiving festivities commence.

The broader CityTri schedule includes half marathons, positioning the Manhattanite races within a local program focused on accessible distances and consistent events.

Der Merry Christmas Run ist ein weihnachtlicher Gruppenlauf, der im Central Park in New York City stattfindet. Du kannst zwischen 5K, 10K und Halbmarathon-Distanzen wählen, und es gibt auch noch einen Family 1 Mile Fun Run. Der Lauf startet morgens, und sowohl Läufer als auch Walker sind willkommen. Das Ganze ist ganz unkompliziert: Es gibt keine Chip-Zeitmessung, keine vorgeschriebene Ausrüstung, und du kannst optional deine Zeit selbst tracken mit Apps wie Strava, RunKeeper oder Nike Run. Die Strecke beginnt und endet im Central Park, die genaue Streckenkarte bekommen die Teilnehmer dann noch. Das ist ein kleinerer, privater Lauf mit begrenzten Startwellen, das heißt, sobald eine Startwelle voll ist, sind die Anmeldungen zu. Wer keinen Platz mehr bekommt, kann auf die Warteliste oder beim Virtual Race mitmachen. Der Lauf ist offen für alle Paces und Altersgruppen, wobei Minderjährige von einem Erziehungsberechtigten begleitet werden müssen. Im Startpaket sind Race Merchandise enthalten, wie zum Beispiel ein Shirt für Teilnehmer aus den USA, eine Finisher-Medaille und ein Handtuch oder ein ähnliches Give-away dabei.

Hier warten zwei ganz unterschiedliche Abenteuer auf euch. Eine Strecke ist eine schöne, asphaltierte Runde um den Rockland Lake herum, die super läuft, mit weiten Ausblicken und eher flachem Gelände. Die andere führt hoch über den steinigen und anspruchsvollen Long Path. Da geht’s durch Wald und über Felsvorsprünge zum Gipfel des Hook Mountain, wo dich ein 360-Grad-Blick auf den Hudson River erwartet. Unten der See, oben die Berge – und das Ganze mit einer Trail-Party!
