The Pocono Mountains Marathon Race Festival is a fall running event held at Promised Land State Park in Greentown, Pennsylvania. The start and finish lines are located at the Upper Lake Overflow Parking Lot. Participants can select from a 5K, 10K, half marathon, or full marathon. The marathon is a certified Boston Marathon qualifier, with PA certification number 21011NP. The course winds through the state park during the fall foliage season, offering a wooded Pocono park running experience rather than city streets. Elite Feats organizes the event, and Mark Hughes is the race director. Awards are presented in male, female, and nonbinary categories, with age-group awards for nonbinary runners in the marathon, half marathon, and 10K. First-time half marathon and marathon finishers receive a commemorative plaque alongside their finisher medal. Registration includes a shirt, medal, and running socks.

The Veterans Trail Festival begins and ends at the Recreation Hall in Raccoon Creek State Park, near Hookstown, Pennsylvania. The event features a 5K run/hike and also offers 20-mile and 50K trail races, accommodating walkers, newer trail runners, and ultra runners on the same day. The 5K follows an out-and-back path with a water station at the midpoint. The 20-mile and 50K routes primarily use single-track trails, presenting rocks, roots, challenging footing, and steep inclines, which often lead to the typical finisher comment: “That was harder than I thought it would be.” The longer races include five aid stations and ham radio tracking. The event benefits veteran and military service members via the Outdoor Immersion Team; 5K participants can also engage in fundraising.

The Oglebay Twinkle Trot 5K is a holiday night run at Oglebay in Wheeling, West Virginia, during the resort’s Festival of Lights season. Runners and walkers begin in the evening, starting and finishing on Camp Russell Lane near the zoo. Wolf Creek Race Management provides chip timing, but the event welcomes a wide range of participants: experienced runners, first-timers, joggers, walkers, kids, and special guests. The course guides participants through Oglebay’s light displays, featuring millions of lights, festive scenes, and holiday music. All participants must carry or wear a personal light for visibility. Many runners decorate their clothing with lights and winter themes. The event also offers registration, packet pickup, a DJ, kids’ activities, free parking, and restrooms near the start and finish, creating a family holiday outing.
