The Montebello Heritage 5K/10K is an annual October running event in Montebello, California, offering both 5K and 10K distances. Both races begin at 1301 W. Whittier Boulevard, with the 5K starting at Montebello City Park. The event commences in the morning and is part of the Montebello Heritage Festival. The course follows historic Whittier Boulevard, connecting the race to a central Montebello street. This is a community-focused race, not exclusively for elite runners. The entry fee is the same for both distances, and all participants receive a shirt and medal.

Luz y Vida is a Día de los Muertos run/walk in Riverside, California, with 5k, 10k, 15k, and half marathon options from Ryan Bonaminio Park. A Better World Running organizes it, and the setup is low-key: bib pickup happens the morning of the race, all distances start early, and registration includes a custom finisher medal, a drawstring goodie bag, free photos, free videos, posted results, snacks, and samples. The course uses a marked open path shared with pedestrians, runners, and cyclists, so this is not a closed-road race. The 5k is an out-and-back, the 10k repeats that loop twice, the 15k repeats it three times, and the half marathon uses three 4.36-mile loops. Aid is available at the turnaround and start/finish area with water, Gatorade, and Gu gels. Strollers are allowed, dogs are not, and half marathoners get a 3-hour-15-minute limit with early starts available by request.

Dino Dash is a Tustin school fundraiser offering running, walking, and cycling options on the same day. Proceeds benefit the Tustin Public Schools Foundation. The event caters to families and racers alike, featuring a 2k fun run, chip-timed 5k and 10k runs, and bike tours for various skill levels, including 15k and 5k family rides. Almost 10,000 participants, including runners, walkers, cyclists, volunteers, and sponsors, attended the last event, demonstrating strong community involvement. The race has a history spanning over thirty years. Its student-created identity contributes to its appeal: a student from Legacy Magnet Academy won the logo competition with a dinosaur carrying companions, a design featured on bibs, shirts, posters, flyers, and social media. The event also provides direct support, with donations covering entry fees for students requiring financial assistance.

The Saddleback Marathon is a hilly trail marathon held in the Saddleback Mountains of Cleveland National Forest, near Silverado, California. The race route crosses areas between Orange and Riverside Counties, including the Trabuco District and locations such as Blue Jay Campground, Black Star Canyon, Ortega Highway, and The Main Divide. Wildfires and Covid have previously impacted the event, leading to cancellations and course adjustments, so the exact route may vary. Participants can expect a mix of truck trail ascents, technical singletrack, campground sections, and local trails like San Juan, Chiquito, San Juan Loop, Falcon Trail, and the Candy Store Loop. Entry is limited, cutoffs are enforced, and carpoolers will receive commemorative memorabilia.

Run for Freedom covers races with diverse formats: a West Virginia series near Harpers Ferry and an Oakland 5K coinciding with Black History Month. The West Virginia offerings include a full marathon, half marathon, 10K, and 5K. The Harpers Ferry Half and 5K take place in May, with a larger Freedom's Run event in October. The Oakland Freedom Run is a 5K run or walk in West Oakland, beginning and ending at Raimondi Park, prioritizing community involvement over competitive timing. The Harpers Ferry race crosses Harpers Ferry National Park. Runner accounts describe the half marathon encountering cold rain and fog at Antietam, contributing to the event's strong Civil War history atmosphere. The Oakland route winds past historic Black Panther Party sites, linking the run to themes of freedom, justice, and health equity. Registration operates on a sliding-scale contribution, with proceeds benefiting the Black Panther Party Alumni Legacy Network's survival programs. The race is accompanied by a free wellness festival providing health screenings, food, massage, therapy, and information from local groups focused on nutrition, exercise, stress management, and preventive care.

Runners who do not secure a spot can join a waitlist or opt for the virtual race. The course map is distributed via email to registered participants. A virtual 5K, 10K, and 13.1-mile option is available for remote participation. An eco-registration option excludes the t-shirt. Participants may fundraise for a charity of their choice, with all net proceeds directed to the selected cause.
