The Longview Early Edition Rotary Harvest Classic begins at the Life Works building on New York Street in Longview, Washington, offering fall-morning races for runners, walkers, school teams, and young children. Participants can choose from a 5K run/walk or a 10K run, both starting in the morning. Additionally, there is a High School Challenge 5K and a free quarter-mile Pee Wee Fun Run for children aged 9 and under. This event has benefited the community since 1980, with its fundraising efforts directed toward hunger relief in the Longview area. The 5K and 10K courses are flat, fast, and USA Track & Field-certified, suitable for those aiming for a personal best or enjoying a leisurely walk. The route passes through downtown Longview and by Lake Sacajawea, with the RaceJoy app providing historical context about the city. The High School Challenge features cross-country teams competing for team plaques and individual ribbons. The Pee Wee Fun Run includes games and activities for children, coordinated by the Child & Adolescent Clinic. Timing is managed using RFID chips on bibs, and race-day weather is typically mild, often ranging from the low 40s to mid 50s.

The 1st Annual Run for Resilience Ostomy 5K is a 5K held in Portland, Oregon's Laurelhurst Park for Ostomy Awareness Day. It is a family-friendly run with an OPEN Division and an OSTOMATE Division. This allows ostomates to select a dedicated category while friends, relatives, coworkers, and other supporters can participate in the same event. The race also features local vendors, food, music, and activities suitable for all ages. The course is set within Laurelhurst Park, a historic Portland park established over a century ago, featuring elements such as Firwood Lake. All proceeds benefit United Ostomy Associations of America, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that offers resources, education, advocacy, and support for individuals living with an ostomy or continent diversion. Participants have the option to form race groups or teams, fundraise individually or as teams, and may receive a registration refund by raising a minimum of $150.

Running Scared is a Halloween-themed 5K and 13K based at Captain William Clark Park in Washougal, Washington, in the Greater Portland area. The shorter race starts at 8:00 AM and the 13K follows at 8:30 AM, giving runners a choice between a quick morning run and a longer fall-distance challenge. Costumes are encouraged, but the event also works for runners who just want to race, jog, or bring kids into the Halloween mood without making the day too serious. The standout option is the Deadly Double, where runners complete both the 5K and the 13K and get separate recognition for that combined effort. All participants receive a long-sleeve race shirt and a custom finisher medal, and the start and finish area includes music and Halloween goodies. Awards go deep: overall male and female winners, Masters, Grand Masters, Senior Masters, and traditional five-year age groups are all covered in both race distances.

The Candy Cane 5K Dash takes place in December at St. Patrick School in Meridian, Mississippi. The race begins at 2700 Davis Street at 8:30 a.m. Participants can choose a 5K run or walk, and a 1 Mile Fun Run is available for children and families. The event is organized around the school. Packet pickup occurs at St. Patrick School on the Friday before the race. Registered participants who sign up by the shirt deadline receive a race shirt. Awards are presented to the top male and female finishers overall, winners in age groups from 10-and-under to 70-plus, and the top male and female walkers.

The Couve Clover Run is a St. Patrick’s-style run and walk in downtown Vancouver, Washington, held annually on the weekend after the Shamrock Run. Participants wear festive green for a choice of 1, 3, 7, or 10 miles. The shorter options are accessible to walkers, families, and runners seeking a shorter effort. The 3-mile walk is untimed, and the Lucky Leap 1-mile walk offers participants the same shirt, medal, food, and beverages as longer-distance runners. Why Racing Events hosts the race, which raises money for local charities. The route is mostly flat with a couple of short hills, described as a fast course. The longer courses pass through recognizable Vancouver locations, including historic Officer’s Row, Fort Vancouver, and the Columbia Riverfront. Medals, T-shirts, free beer, pint glasses from Main Event, and a post-race party with downtown Vancouver pubs and breweries are part of the event. Fleet Feet Sports PDX has hosted packet pickup and provided staff and ambassadors on race day, contributing to the event’s local, community-run feel.
