The Gift of Life 5K Run/Walk & 1K Kids Dash is an annual morning race held at Lady Bird Johnson Park in San Antonio. Registration begins at 8:00 AM, with the race commencing at 9:00 AM. The primary event is a 5K suitable for both walkers and runners. Additionally, the 1K Kids Dash offers a shorter race for children aged 11 and under. The park's paved and accessible course is designed for families, children, walkers, and runners, not exclusively for competitive racers. The 5K features three age categories: Teens (12-17), Primers (18-39), and Masters (40+). Transplants for Children organizes this event, presented by the Gordon Hartman Family Foundation. Teams are encouraged to wear matching shirts or costumes to honor a transplant warrior. All participants, including children, will receive a medal.

The Urban Legend 5K is an evening 5K run based at Victoria’s Black Swan Inn in San Antonio, Texas. The race starts at 6 p.m. CDT and is listed with an 8 p.m. finish, fitting a short local race rather than a full-day event. Runners register through the race website, and the venue address is 1006 Holbrook Rd. The source does not give a course map, elevation profile, or field details, so the clearest facts are the 5K distance, the evening start, and the inn-based San Antonio setting.

The StMU 5K for the Neighborhood is a 5K run and walk held on the St. Mary’s University campus in San Antonio each October. Hundreds of participants complete the five-kilometer route, with students, alumni, faculty, staff, and neighbors attending the campus event together. The race raises funds for Holy Rosary Catholic Church and benefits the west side of San Antonio. Following the run and walk, attendees remain on campus for food, music, and fellowship, making the morning a fundraiser and a neighborhood gathering.

The CleftStrong 5K and Kids 1K is a volunteer-run fundraiser in San Antonio, featuring an in-person 5K and a 1K run for children ages 4 to 12. The races are based at Dwight D. Eisenhower Park. The kids’ run starts before the 5K, and runners can enter either competitively or non-competitively. A virtual option allows people to support the event from afar. The route follows the Leon Creek Greenway, beginning near the Eisenhower Park area on NW Military Highway. This race is the primary fundraiser for CleftStrong, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to cleft lip, cleft palate, and other craniofacial conditions. Proceeds benefit the American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Association’s patient care and research efforts. Sponsors, donors, and an all-volunteer team ensure the event continues annually.

Battle of Hillotes starts and finishes in Old Town Helotes, just outside San Antonio, with runners and walkers heading out at 7:30 AM Central. The series gives people three distance choices: a half marathon, a 10K, and a 5K, so it works for both longer-distance runners and people who want a shorter morning run or walk. The race is based at Old Bandera Road in Helotes, using Old Town as the gathering point before and after the run. The event is open to run/walk participants, and listings show entry prices starting at $0, which suggests at least some registration options may be free or promotional depending on the listing and distance.

The Bagel Run, held in the Chicago/Evanston area, centers on a straightforward concept: run for the carbohydrates, then enjoy bagels afterward. Participants can select from 5K, 10K, and half-marathon distances, alongside a Family 1 Mile Fun Run, accommodating choices from a brief family activity to a more demanding race. A virtual participation option exists, and for the primary distances, eco-registration is offered to those who prefer not to receive a shirt. This event is a smaller, privately organized run, with each wave limited and closed upon reaching capacity. The format appeals to individuals seeking a relaxed event rather than a large-scale city race: all running paces are accepted, participants have the option to run or walk, and children under 18 may participate with a guardian. Should an in-person wave be full, the available alternatives are the virtual run or joining the waitlist.

The Calaverita Run 5K & Family Walk begins and ends at La Gloria at Pearl on Grayson Street in San Antonio, during the city's Día de los Muertos season. This evening event features a timed 5K run, followed by a family walk. Options are available for groups and individual walkers. The atmosphere is more community gathering than competitive race: participants can run, walk, cheer, and wear calavera-inspired outfits while remembering relatives and friends who have passed. The 5K route includes water and music at each mile marker. Runners may attach a photo of a loved one to their bib, write names on a remembrance wall, and add photos to a community altar post-race. Strollers and pets are permitted only during the family walk, which is open to children, families, and slower groups. The event's name derives from the Mexican calaverita tradition of short, rhyming poems that humorously address death with wordplay and mischief. Following the race, local vendors and community art displays extend the gathering past the finish line.

Bubble Run San Antonio is a three-mile fun run centered on colored foam rather than speed. Participants typically wear white T-shirts to make the colors stand out, and the field includes adults, children, and people with strollers. Waves depart every 3 to 5 minutes, maintaining course flow without a crowded start. The route guides runners, walkers, dancers, and families through four Foam Bogs, each featuring a distinct foam color and enough bubbles to coat participants thoroughly. There is no timing clock or placement awards, making the primary contest who finishes with the most color. Volunteers and charity partners provide assistance along the way, and the finish area offers DJs, complimentary merchandise, and additional foam after the three miles conclude.
