10K versenyek Goshen közelében

The Sandhill Crane All Trail Half Marathon/10K/5K takes place at Dr. T. K. Lawless County Park, an 820-acre park in Vandalia, Michigan. The event features a half marathon, 10K run/walk, 5K run/walk, and a 1K kids fun run, all utilizing unpaved park trails. The half marathon is a 13.1-mile non-repeat route, ensuring runners experience new terrain throughout. The course winds through forest and field, alongside streams and small lakes, with six bridge crossings. It is not flat, starting around 900 feet and climbing to a high point near 1,000 feet, incorporating hills into the trail running. Sandhill cranes are common in the area, inspiring the race's name and offering participants a chance to spot one. The event is limited to 500 participants, uses chip timing, and provides fruit at the finish. Finishers get custom long-sleeve performance shirts, top finishers receive laser-cut wood awards, and second and third place finishers in each age group receive medals. Proceeds benefit Dowagiac Rotary charities and Cass County Parks.

A Haunted Halloween Hustle egy Halloween-tematikájú versenynap Abshire Parkban, Goshen, Indiana városában, négy távval: Monster Mile, Frightening 5K, Terrible 10K és Haunted Half Marathon. A rövidebb futamok és a half marathon reggel rajtolnak. A Monster Mile időmérés nélküli, lazább opció. Ez az esemény azoknak a futóknak és gyaloglóknak szól, akik őszi versenyt keresnek jelmezes hangulattal, nem csak egy sima országúti futást ijesztgetős névvel. Minden pálya a Pumpkinvine Trail útvonalát használja, oda-vissza formátumban, így rajt előtt könnyű fejben összerakni, merre megy a kör. A trail forgalommentes, az útkereszteződéseknél rendőrök és önkéntesek állnak, a pálya mentén pedig mobil vécék is vannak. Minden célba érkező érmet kap, az abszolút és korosztályos díjazás pedig a 5K, 10K és half marathon távokon jár. A jelmez itt tényleg része a bulinak: érdemes beöltözni, nyolc kategóriában osztanak jelmezdíjakat, és a Monster Mash parade általában jó alkalom arra, hogy mindenki megmutassa a szettjét.

The Dowagiac All Trail Turkey Trot takes place entirely on unpaved trails at Southwestern Michigan College in Dowagiac, Michigan. This November trail race offers 10K and 5K distances that begin simultaneously, along with a 1K children's run scheduled afterward. The event limits registration to 500 participants, employs chip timing with live results, and maintains a practical local-race format: tiered entry fees, finisher shirts for pre-registered runners, and timing services provided by Mac's Sports Timing. The course follows the college's trail system at 58900 Cherry Grove Road, noting an elevation of 761 feet at its highest point. This distinguishes it as a campus-trail run rather than a road race with a minor unpaved section. Southwestern Michigan College supports the event, Ron Gunn of Cairn Stone Adventure Tours oversees its direction, and the race originated in 1967, establishing it as a long-standing Dowagiac tradition. Adults may run or walk the 5K and 10K, and the children's run provides a shorter option for younger participants, awarding ribbons.

This relaxed event at Potato Creek State Park Nature Center is for walkers, runners, and families. The trails are broken in, welcoming everyone from a running veteran to a first-time trail runner. The course is approximately a 10k loop. All distances are chip-timed by Watts My Time. Pets are welcome to spectate.
