The Tri-City 5k Run/Walk is a rain-or-shine community race in Somersworth, New Hampshire, starting from 189 Route 108.

The front of the field has ranged from local fast runners around the 17-minute mark to female winners just under or just over 20 minutes, while the run/walk format keeps the day open to families, casual walkers, and supporters who are there mainly for the fundraiser.

Run for Outreach combines the Tryon Half Marathon and the Fall for the Foothills 5K at Tryon International, a large equestrian property in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The half marathon covers 13.1 miles and the 5K covers 5 kilometers. Both races function as a fundraiser for Outreach and are presented by Ashworth Financial. It is a fall event with a small-field atmosphere; the most recent race had 52 runners in the half marathon and 21 in the 5K. The half marathon course consists mostly of packed dirt and gravel, offering a softer surface than a road race without being a full trail run. The route runs alongside a river and through Tryon's horse country, with Tryon International's arenas, stables, riding trails, and open grounds defining the setting. Participants who have returned for the race often mention the post-race breakfast, which includes muffins, bagels, hot egg casseroles, and fruit. The race organizers have also noted the venue's 1,600-plus acres as space for potential route adjustments, an expanded committee, and a possible fun run.
