Gare di 5K vicino a Brisbane

La Bay Front Run parte e arriva su Bayfront Boulevard a Hercules, California, proprio lì vicino al Bay Front Trail. Questa corsa che fanno ogni anno per la comunità propone una 5K, una 10K, una 1 Mile Run/Walk e anche una Kids Fun Run per i più piccoli. Le gare principali partono al mattino, mentre quelle per i bambini sono un po' più tardi. La 5K e la 10K hanno il cronometraggio col chip e la classifica, invece le distanze più corte sono più tranquille, adatte a chi cammina, alle famiglie e ai bambini piccoli. Il percorso parte da Sanderling e Bayfront, prosegue lungo Bayfront Boulevard fino all'ingresso del Bay Trail a John Muir Parkway. Poi segue il sentiero attraverso Hercules, va verso Rodeo e poi c'è il giro di boa al termine del Bay Trail. La 10K fa questo percorso due volte. L'evento aiuta la Hercules Education Foundation. Dopo la corsa, c'è il Bay Front Festival con musica, food truck, attività commerciali locali, intrattenimento e associazioni della comunità. Chi si iscrive presto riceve la maglietta della gara, i primi 350 che arrivano prendono una medaglia, e i migliori uomini e donne della 5K e 10K ricevono dei premi.

The Reservoir Dogs Trail Run is an October trail race held at San Pablo Reservoir, located near Orinda in the East Bay. All race distances commence and conclude at the San Pablo Reservoir Visitor Center. Participants can select from 5K, 10K, half marathon, or 35K distances. The event has a participant cap of approximately 300 individuals across all races. Inside Trail Racing organizes this event. The longer distances feature a 6.5-hour time limit, maintaining the structure of a genuine trail race as opposed to a casual reservoir run. The course's distinctive feature is its complete circuit around Briones Reservoir using EBMUD trails, incorporating segments typically accessible only with permits. Expect a mix of moderately technical dirt paths, open fire roads, undulating hills, wooded single-track, winding single and double-track sections, exposed ridgelines, and expansive vistas of the watershed. The 10K, half marathon, and 35K races involve less elevation gain compared to many other Inside Trail events, allowing for faster times while still providing road runners with a true trail challenge. Aid stations are equipped with gels, trail mix, salty snacks, fruit, Coke, and Stroopwafels; however, participants must carry their own water between stations. Finishers receive a tech shirt and a medal, age-group victors are awarded trophies, and one participant receives the unique "Dead Last Finisher" award. Notably, dogs are prohibited despite the race's name.

These routes offer a measured course for competitive runners and a straightforward local path for casual participants. The field comprises competitive racers, joggers, walkers, families, and children. Age-group medals are awarded to the top three finishers in the 5K and 10K, with medals given to all participants who finish a race.

The Donut Fun Run is a timed, donut-themed 5k at Alameda Point, starting from the Seaplane Lagoon Promenade. It is open to all ages and abilities, accommodating families, casual walkers, first-time 5k runners, and people who still want an official time. The race is in its fourth annual edition, with the setup favoring a community morning and a finish-line party over a competitive racing event. After the 5k, participants enter a Finish Line Festival centered on donuts and local vendors. The festival features a donut eating contest, donuts from Donut Petit, live music, food and beverage booths, Bay Area craft vendors, a health and wellness expo, and beer and wine for guests over 21. A specific local highlight is The Dancing Donuts, a group from Alameda's Dance/10 studio, performing at the festival and available for photos.

Senior Coastsiders hosts it, and the proceeds support programs for local older adults. The route follows coastal paths overlooking the ocean, with rolling but generally fast, flat terrain that works for beginners, fun runners, and people chasing a personal best.

The festival side adds the Great Pumpkin Parade, live music, pie-eating contests, costume contests, giant pumpkin displays, and free admission on historic Main Street in the self-styled World Pumpkin Capital.
