The Booby Bolt 5k & Kids 1 Mile Fun Run is a fall community race held at Pleasant View Community Park, located at 2501 Pleasant View Road. Pink Out For Hope, a local 501(c)3 nonprofit, organizes the event as its primary fundraiser to support local breast cancer patients. Participants can run or walk the 5k, and children aged 12 and under can join a separate 1-mile Fun Run. Pink Out For Hope utilizes the race to provide financial aid, resources, and encouragement to patients undergoing breast cancer treatment. The organization has assisted over 70 local patients. A recent running of the event attracted more than 500 participants, becoming the organization’s second-largest event at that time. One year's race was canceled because several board members were actively battling breast cancer, highlighting the personal connection many have to the cause.

The Tristin Franklin Memorial Timed 5k and 1mi is a local memorial race held in Pleasant View, Tennessee, starting at 2501 Pleasant View Road. Participants can select a timed 1-mile race at 8:00 AM CST or a timed 5K at 8:30 AM CST. Registration costs $20 for the mile and $30 for the 5K. The event commemorates Tristin Franklin, with all proceeds supporting scholarships for student athletes and the construction of a track in Cheatham County. As a relatively new race series, it features a straightforward two-distance format suitable for those aiming for a timed 5K or seeking a shorter mile option while contributing to the foundation's local objectives.

Give 'N Gobble is a Thanksgiving morning turkey trot in the Portland area, centered on Sherwood and run in partnership with the Sherwood YMCA. It started in 2007 and offers a choice between a 5K walk/run and a 10K run. Annually, about 2,000 to 2,200 people participate, making it feel like a neighborhood holiday gathering as much as a race. The event also functions as a community food drive; registered participants receive free shirts when they bring a bag of non-perishable food, while supplies last. The race supports Helping Hands Food Bank, an Oregon Food Bank affiliate serving local families with pantry staples, dairy, fruit, and vegetables. Give 'N Gobble has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars and collected tens of thousands of pounds of food. Its fundraising has also supported the Helping Hands Backpack Meals for Kids program, providing over 100,000 meals for at-risk children. Volunteers are essential to the event, with many returning annually to work specific course or stadium locations. The event's premise is straightforward: move before Thanksgiving dinner, bring food for others, and spend the morning with family, friends, and neighbors.
