The Black Bear Half Marathon & 8K is a fall race in Hendersonville, North Carolina, run during peak foliage season. Both distances start and finish in Jackson Park. The event is organized by iDaph Events with Hunter Subaru as presenting sponsor. The half marathon uses a fast USATF-certified route with under 400 feet of elevation gain, suitable for runners chasing a personal best or seeking a manageable autumn race. The course heads out along Bartlett Street, joins the paved Oklawaha Greenway, and moves through wooded stretches, historic streets, and river corridors. The half marathon is a double loop, simplifying pacing and giving spectators more chances to see runners. Aid stations provide water, Gatorade, energy gels, and Jambars, with repeated hydration access on each loop. Packet pickup is held the day before at Oklawaha Brewing, giving the weekend a local Hendersonville feel before race morning.

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.
