Recurring 5K races near Stockton-Lodi
Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly
Peace Officer Memorial Run
The Peace Officer Memorial Run begins and ends in downtown Modesto, California, on the first Sunday of October annually. It features a 5K, half marathon, relay, and fun run, accommodating individuals competing in longer distances, team participants, and families attending the shorter events. The race is timed, includes event photos, and provides participants with shirts, bibs, and medals.
The run is organized by the Peace Officer Memorial Group of Stanislaus County, a nonprofit established to honor officers who die in the line of duty and support their families. The start and finish area hosts vendor booths and a safety fair, with awards presented to overall and age-group finishers. The Kids' Fun Run maintains a playful tradition where children pursue a pretend "bad guy" as part of the event.
Riverbank Run for the Cheese (50th Anniversary Run)
Riverbank Run for the Cheese is an October race series held at Galaxy Theatres on Patterson Road in Riverbank, California. The race options are straightforward: a 1 Mile neighborhood loop, a 5K, and a 10K, with virtual options for those unable to attend in person. The 5K and 10K begin after the 1 Mile, making the morning suitable for families, less experienced runners, and participants running multiple races. Adults can enter any of the three races, youth entries are available, and combined options pair the 1 Mile with either the 5K or the 10K.
The 1 Mile is flat and circles through the adjacent neighborhood. The 5K follows gently rolling, tree-lined residential streets, and permits walkers and baby strollers. The 10K follows gently rolling residential streets as a two-loop course, with a 90-minute time limit; walkers are not permitted, but runners may use baby strollers. Packet pickup is at the Riverbank Galaxy Theatre, with in-person registration available there before race day and again on race morning. The 50th anniversary designation provides a clear local-history connection, while the course design positions it as a neighborhood road race rather than a large-scale event.
The 2026 Run for Education
The Run for Education is a spring 5K, 10K, and Kids Fun Run held in El Segundo, California. Its purpose, reflected in the name, is to raise funds for the city’s K-12 public schools. The El Segundo PTA Council organizes the event, which is now in its fourth decade.
The 5K and 10K courses are USATF-certified, winding through downtown El Segundo and adjacent neighborhoods. These routes offer a measured course for competitive runners and a straightforward local path for casual participants. The field comprises competitive racers, joggers, walkers, families, and children. Age-group medals are awarded to the top three finishers in the 5K and 10K, with medals given to all participants who finish a race.
Night Nation Run - Sacramento
Night Nation Run - Sacramento is an October fun run in Sacramento focused on music, lights, and a post-race party. The series describes itself as the world's first Running Music Festival, emphasizing a night event where participants wear glow gear and move through a party-style course, rather than a fast road race or a strictly competitive field.
The route features live DJs, bubble zones, light shows, neon, and black lights, leading finishers to a main-stage after-party with headliner DJs. Registration provides a race bib, glow necklace, giveaways, after-party admission, and a T-shirt for Premium and VIP entries. The Night Nation Run community has over 2 million participants globally, and the series partners with Stand Up To Cancer as its official charity.
Fremont Run 4 Education
Day of The Dead 5K & 10k
The Day of The Dead 5K & 10K is a Sacramento race held at North Natomas Regional Park. The in-person 5K begins at 9 a.m. A virtual 5K option is also available. Registration costs $40 per athlete and includes a race T-shirt.
The race is open to youth, adult, and masters runners, accommodating a wide age range. It is sanctioned by USATF, and registration is managed through RunSignup.
Haunted Sacramento 5K, 10K
The Haunted Sacramento 5K, 10K is a Halloween running event in Sacramento, California, offering 5K and 10K distances. It is structured less like a traditional road race and more like a Halloween exploration using a map, incorporating elements of adventure racing, mixed terrain, orienteering, and road running.
Participants navigate East Sacramento's Fab 40s neighborhood, chosen for its streets decorated extensively for Halloween. The event is presented as trick-or-treating for adults and families. It accommodates teams of one to five, making it suitable for solo runners, small groups, and families seeking a race focused on costumes, neighborhood discovery, and Halloween decorations.
RMH BC & Yukon Boundary Bay
Boundary Bay is a late-fall race series held at Boundary Bay Park, Centennial Beach in Delta, British Columbia, offering 5K, 10K, half marathon, marathon, and 4-person marathon relay distances. The marathon is presented as a final opportunity for runners aiming for a Boston qualifying time, featuring a straightforward course: a completely flat gravel oceanside trail with no elevation gain.
All distances follow an out-and-back route along British Columbia's southern coast, allowing participants to run beside Boundary Bay instead of through city streets. The course offers views across the Salish Sea towards the San Juan Islands, with migratory birds present and ocean weather as the primary variable. The race supports Ronald McDonald House BC & Yukon. Organizers acknowledge the late-season timing by advising runners to dress warmly, bring dry clothes, and appreciate the clock-change weekend that may provide an extra hour of sleep.
Diwali Fun Run + Festival
The Diwali Fun Run + Festival is an evening event at the Community Center on Old Canyon Road in Fremont, California. It offers timed 5K and 10K races, plus a Festival Only option. The event is designed for families, runners, and walkers, with registration open to a wide age range, from young children to older adults.
The races are straightforward: select the 5K or 10K, complete it by running or walking, and receive a medal upon finishing. The festival includes catered food, arts and crafts, a selfie station, music for dancing, light-up bracelets, and complimentary henna tattoos for attendees. Those not racing can still enjoy the food and activities. The event also supports Purrific Rescue through fundraising.
Davis Turkey Trot
The Davis Turkey Trot, held on the Saturday before Thanksgiving in Davis, California, begins at 6th and C Streets for all timed races. It offers participants a choice of distances on one morning: 1 mile, 2 mile, 5K, 10K, and half marathon, along with a children's run. The event typically draws between 1,000 and 5,000 participants, creating a busy, community-focused atmosphere.
The courses are noted for being fast and flat, suitable for beginners, families, and those aiming for a consistent pace. The half marathon is not a Boston Qualifier. The event incorporates the holiday spirit through its shirts, post-race activities, and finisher medals for human and canine participants. Packet pickup is offered the day before and on race morning, with parking at Davis High School and bib pickup located near the finish line on race day.
Bishop Ranch Turkey Trot
The Bishop Ranch Turkey Trot is a Thanksgiving Day 5K held at Bishop Ranch City Center in San Ramon, California. This community race, timed with chips, offers two primary 5K choices: the FAST Turkey 5K for those aiming for under 40 minutes, and the Festive 5K for all others. A Tiny Turkey dash provides a 50-yard run for children under 5, making the morning suitable for racers, walkers, families, and spectators.
The course circles the lakes and gardens near Bishop Ranch City Center, featuring a level path of pavement and packed dirt. Costumes are encouraged, including turkey suits, and pets may accompany family groups. Registration fees benefit the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano, lending the event a straightforward Thanksgiving theme: run, cheer, dress up, and support a local food bank before the holiday festivities commence.
12th Annual Tri-Valley Turkey Burn
The Tri-Valley Turkey Burn is a Thanksgiving morning 5K and 10K run, walk, or stroll held at Ken Mercer Sports Park in Pleasanton, California. It is designed for families, casual walkers, runners, strollers, and leashed dogs, with affordable registration fees for adults, youth, and children under 10.
The event embraces the holiday spirit: participants can create their own "I am thankful for..." race bib, coffee is available before the start, and snacks are provided afterward. A pre-race warm-up is offered, along with sponsor and nonprofit booths. Optional Turkey Burn apparel, including shirts, hats, socks, and sunglasses, is available for purchase, and all participants receive a finisher medal.

Stockton-Lodi Training Notes
Stockton-Lodi hosts 57 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.
Victory Park works for daytime paved laps, and UOP gives runners good early weekday base miles. Fremont Park downtown has a soft running pad when legs need a break from concrete. The levees at March and Hammer see people jogging often, and the green belt on March fits steady Z2. Lodi Lake nature trail is nice when you want shade and dirt underfoot. Sundance Running Club, Milechasers, Latinos Run Stockton, 209 Run Club, TNRC, and Run 209 keep the local scene moving. Taco The Town 5K & 10K, Race To Slow The Pace, and Jingle All the Way 5K and 10K give the calendar shape.
7 miles. 6 miles. There's a 5-mile Michael David Winery option. Stockton Bike Club has been active since 1966, so group-ride culture is not new here. Tour Delle Vigne is the anchor event, and its 30k, 60k, and 100k options cover gran fondo energy without leaving the local grid. The climbs sit east on vineyard dirt, where slight hills add bite.
May, June, September, and December are the good months to circle on the training plan. June brings Skedaddle Bubble Run at Michael Faklis Park, so runners can keep speed playful before the heat gets serious. September brings Taco The Town 5K & 10K and Tracy Donut Dash, and riders can still stack Z2 toward winery miles. November brings the 2026 Run Against Hunger, and December brings Jingle All the Way 5K and 10K. Winter keeps both sports flatter and steadier, with paved trails, levees, nature trail miles, and short waterfront rides doing most of the work.
