10K-Läufe in der Nähe von Middleton

The Haunted Hustle is a Halloween-themed race day held at KEVA Sports Center in Middleton, Wisconsin, with the start and finish lines at the same location. The event offers a half marathon, 10K, 5K, 5K dog jog, 5K walk, and a kid's run, suitable for runners, walkers, families, and participants with a dog. The race names reflect the theme, such as the Monster Dash, Haunted Half Marathon, Terror 10K, Run For Your Life 5K, Great Pup-Kin Run, and Zombie Walk 5K. The Middleton races begin in a sequence on a Saturday morning, starting with the kids' Monster Dash, followed by the longer and shorter distance races departing a few minutes apart. Costumes are encouraged, but standard running attire is also acceptable. The finish area features live music and refreshments, contributing to a Halloween festival atmosphere rather than a simple road race. A separate Haunted Hustle 5K run/walk takes place in Jefferson City, Missouri, with proceeds benefiting the Sneaker Project.

Driftless Distance Night is a summer evening track meet held under the lights at Central High School in La Crosse, Wisconsin. While the 5k is the primary event, the schedule also features a Community Walk/Jog 5k and youth races, accommodating both those seeking a relaxed group run and runners aiming for fast track times. All events take place on the track at 1801 Losey Blvd S, with participants eligible to enter one or multiple races. The 5k is divided into Open, Seeded, and Elite heats, with pacers set for 20:00, 17:00, and 15:00 respectively. The youth meet, organized in partnership with River City Run Club, includes 200m, 1600m, and 3200m races. Spectators are welcome, and registration includes a free shirt. All proceeds benefit the Driftless Distance Project's initiatives in running.

Birdie Derby is a Thanksgiving morning 10K run and 5K run/walk in Fitchburg, Wisconsin, starting at 5500 E. Cheryl Parkway. The event runs from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. and includes individual and team entries, untimed 5K walking options, virtual 5K and 10K choices, and a free 100-yard Kids Dash for ages 2 to 6 with a paid adult registration. The race complements Madison’s Thanksgiving routine: participants get active before the holiday meal, then receive a race bib, long-sleeved shirt or tech hoodie, knit hat, free photos, and Sportstats timing on a precisely measured course. Finish-line items include a Kwik Trip Glazer, chocolate milk, banana, water, and free Oasis Cafe coffee or hot chocolate before and after the race. All proceeds benefit a Wisconsin nonprofit and support Active Youth Wisconsin, which helps children become active by providing equipment and clothing.

Freeze for Food, ein traditionsreicher Lauf in Madison, Wisconsin, findet am Vilas Park Shelter am Vilas Park Drive statt. Das Event bietet einen 5K Lauf/Walk um 12 Uhr mittags und einen 10K Lauf um 13 Uhr. Du kannst entweder walken, eine Distanz laufen oder dich für beides anmelden. Organisiert von RPCVs of Wisconsin-Madison, ist es ein jährliches Community-Event mit moderaten Startgebühren. Der Lauf unterstützt die Ernährungssicherheit und arbeitet mit Open Doors for Refugees zusammen und verbindet den Tag so mit lokalen Hilfsaktionen, die über die reinen Zielzeiten hinausgehen. Läufer und Walker treffen sich im Vilas Park. Die Startnummernausgabe ist am Renntag direkt am Shelter möglich, oder du holst sie dir schon früher bei Movin' Shoes in der South Park Street ab. Die Serie gibt es schon seit über 45 Jahren. Damit ist sie eine echte Madisoner Wintertradition geworden, bei der es um die Teilnahme, Spenden sammeln und ein einfaches Laufkonzept im Park geht.
