Cahuilla Rez Ultra offers multiple trail and road running distances on the Cahuilla Indian Reservation in Anza, California. Options include a Tribal Member 5k and half marathon, plus 6-hour, 12-hour, 24-hour, and 100-mile formats. This event takes place in a mountain desert environment and benefits the Cahuilla Band of Indians, with all proceeds after operational costs directed to the tribe's Youth and Family Committee. The race incorporates cultural and educational components about the Cahuilla people, connecting the event directly to the reservation. The primary ultra course is a 2-mile loop on a double-track dirt road, with approximately 170 feet of elevation gain per lap, totaling around 8,500 feet over 100 miles. The half marathon course covers 13 miles on reservation roads, featuring about 1,500 feet of climb and four aid stations. A main aid station at the softball field provides hot and substantial food choices, along with access to permanent restroom facilities. Camping and crew support are available for longer races, including tent camping on the softball field, car camping in a nearby dirt lot, and limited free RV spots. Participants completing 100 miles receive a buckle, all finishers get a medal, top finishers are awarded handcrafted prizes, and the Tribal Member 5k offers a buckle instead of a shirt.

Pink on Parade, c'est une marche de sensibilisation au cancer du sein qui a lieu au Ryan Bonaminio Park à Riverside, California. C'est un événement ouvert aux familles, aux équipes, aux survivants, à leurs proches, et même à ceux qui veulent venir avec leurs animaux. Au choix, tu as un parcours de 5K ou une marche plus courte de 1.7K, la 'Family Fun walk', qui fait le tour du parc. Le parcours de 5K peut passer par le Mt. Rubidoux et il est conçu pour symboliser le parcours face au cancer. L'option plus courte rend la journée accessible aux enfants et aux marcheurs occasionnels. L'événement rend hommage aux survivants, se souvient de ceux qu'on a perdus à cause du cancer, et tous les fonds récoltés vont à The Pink Ribbon Place, un centre de ressources local qui aide les personnes et les familles touchées par la maladie. En dehors des sentiers de marche, il y a aussi un pavillon pour les survivants, une expo de vendeurs, une zone pour les enfants, de quoi manger et boire, un échauffement avant le départ, des récompenses pour les équipes (pour la collecte de fonds et l'esprit), un concours de design de T-shirts, des produits dérivés, et même une expo de voitures classiques, avec des modèles importés et locaux des années 1940 à 1980.

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.

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.
