Recurring 10K races near Visalia

Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

Scarecrow 2.0
SAT OCT 10
Scarecrow 2.0 is a fall family race in Exeter, California, starting from Exeter City Park at 333 S D Street. The lineup gives adults and kids a few easy choices: a 10K run/walk, a 2 Mile Run/Walk, and Kids Dash races split for ages 1-5 and 6-10. It is set up as a small-town community morning rather than a runners-only event, with chip timing, finisher medals, certificates, race photos, shirts, free drinks, and age-group awards. The course winds through downtown Exeter and runs alongside the town's scarecrow displays, which gives the race its local hook. Finishers get a Svenhard's danish, a nice detail because Svenhard's is based in Exeter. The park also has a costume contest plus a live DJ and music, so families can hang around after the run. A portion of funds and donations goes to the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Sequoias, which serves more than 3,200 young people in Tulare County each year.

Run for Hope
SAT NOV 14
Run for Hope is an annual family-friendly fundraiser offering a 5K and a one-mile walk/run. It takes place at four in-person locations and includes a virtual option for remote participation. The in-person sites are Wheeler Ferris Wheel in Oklahoma City, Riverwalk Jenks near Tulsa, First Baptist Church in Weatherford, and Cottonwood Creek Park in Colorado Springs. The event is designed for families and runners alike, featuring food trucks, face painting, games, and options for a shorter, less strenuous participation. The funds raised support free Finding Hope and Hope After Loss family support groups. The number of runners directly impacts the practical help provided: every 20 runners supply books for one support group, every 50 runners enable one person to attend a retreat, and every 150 runners help launch a new Finding Hope or Hope After Loss group. The event targets 2,000 runners and 2,000 teams, with each runner contributing to the sustenance of over 60 family support groups. Participants have the option to submit a photo honoring a loved one, adding a personal dimension to the event beyond the race.
Kaweah Lake Bottom Trail Run
SAT NOV 14
Runners cross the dry bed of Kaweah Lake at this trail race in Three Rivers, California. The race takes place in the fall and offers two straightforward distance options: a 5K (3.1 miles) and a 10K (6.2 miles). It begins and ends on Sierra Drive. With limited parking, it has the feel of a small local event rather than a large city race. The course’s main appeal is its unique surface and location: instead of running around the lake, participants run across the exposed lake bottom. The first race sold out two weeks before the event, and participation is capped. Finishers receive a Lake Bottom t-shirt, a custom wood medal, complimentary race photos, and chip timing. The finish area provides food, music, and camaraderie. Proceeds benefit St. Anthony Retreat and Conference Center.
Coffee Run
SAT JAN 9
Coffee Run is a morning run and walk at Woodward Park in Fresno, California, with coffee built into the day from the name to the finish-line mug. The event is in its fifth annual edition and offers a timed 10K, a timed 5K run/walk, a non-timed 2-mile run/walk, and a virtual option. All in-person races start at 9:00 AM PST, and the shorter non-timed distance gives families and casual walkers a way to join without racing the clock. The 10K counts as a Classic Series Point Race, so it draws runners chasing series points as well as people there for a relaxed community morning. Participants get a long sleeve event shirt, a custom finisher medal, and a commemorative coffee mug. After the run, there is hot or cold coffee, hot chocolate for kids, coffee-related snacks, music, age group awards, and free downloadable photos. The race partners with Valley PBS, with support going toward local educational programming in the Central Valley.
Corporal Javier Bejar Memorial Run Reedley Police Department
SAT FEB 20
The Corporal Javier Bejar Memorial Run is an event in Reedley, California, organized by the Reedley Police Department. It honors Corporal Javier Bejar, a Reedley police officer and Marine Corps veteran who died in the line of duty. The event includes a 10K run, 10K walk, 5K run/walk, 5K walk, and a virtual run/walk. In-person events begin at G Street and 10th Street in Reedley. The race is designed for both runners and walkers, with separate start times for each group on race morning. Race day starts with late packet pickup and a ceremony before the first 10K runners begin. Participants get a commemorative shirt and finisher medal inspired by Corporal Bejar's life and sacrifice. Medals are guaranteed for the first 350 runners, and shirts are not guaranteed for those who register late. Packet pickup takes place at the Reedley Police Department Annex Building on G Street, reinforcing the event's connection to the department and the community it remembers.
