The North Bend Trail Fest is a two-day mountain running weekend in North Bend, Washington, with Sunday races starting from Torguson Park. It begins Saturday morning with the Mt Si VK, a three-mile climb with 3,500 feet of gain, described by Mountain Running Races as the only true vertical kilometer in the Pacific Northwest and the West. The race options range from the Little Si 10k and kid's races to the North Bend Skyline 30k, which is the Vert Running Series Championship event. Runners seeking the complete challenge can enter the North Bend Double: the Mt Si VK followed by the Skyline 30k, totaling over 10,000 feet of climbing across the weekend. The festival also features a Mountain Adventure Expo, and the VK is followed by a gathering at Pro Ski Shop in North Bend.

The Bagel Run 5K/10K/13.1 is a small private group run in New York City offering 5K, 10K, and half-marathon distances, along with a 1-mile Family Fun Run. The concept is straightforward: run for the carbs, then enjoy the bagels. Participants can also opt for a virtual 5K, 10K, or half marathon. The in-person races include an eco-registration option that omits a shirt. This event accommodates both running and walking, welcoming all paces and allowing children accompanied by a guardian. Each wave has a participant limit and closes once full, with a waitlist available when capacity is reached. The format is intentionally relaxed, requiring no special equipment or obstacles, focusing solely on the run with coordinators present to assist participants.

The Pumpkin Spice Run is a fall race day in Seward Park, featuring short, family-friendly distances and pumpkin-season jokes. Runners can choose the 9K Double Shot, 5K Single Shot, 1 Mile Pumpkin Dash, Stroller Dash, or Kid's Race. The main events use coffee-size names, and the stroller option includes a quarter-mile dash for parents and small kids. The course is set entirely within Seward Park, framing the race as a leaf-and-pumpkin outing rather than a serious road-racing test. Participants may pick a pumpkin from a mini pumpkin patch and carry it while they run. Registration includes a fresh Pumpkin Spice Latte at the finish. The event also adds a pumpkin festival with games and face painting for families.

The Alaska Airlines Dawg Dash 5K/10K begins and ends on the University of Washington campus in Seattle. This yearly road race includes a 10K, a 5K run/walk, and a Husky Pups Run for children 8 and under. The event is designed for UW alumni, students, staff, families, and casual runners, not exclusively serious racers. The course remains on campus, starting and finishing at UW. Dogs are permitted, aligning with the Husky theme and giving the event a community feel distinct from a typical city race. Proceeds benefit UW students, and members of the UW Alumni Association, UW Retirees Association, UW faculty and staff, and UW students receive registration discounts. The 5K and 10K have previously sold out, indicating sufficient local interest to warrant early registration.

The I Can and I Will Run is a 5K and 10K fun run in Seattle, with the race area centered on Green Lake. It is scheduled for October, and both distances start and finish near the Green Lake Community Center and the adjacent baseball fields. The 5K follows part of the inner Green Lake trail and roads around the lake. The 10K includes Lower Woodland Park and roads around Woodland Park Zoo before rejoining the 5K route. Proceeds benefit uncompensated care at Seattle Children's Hospital, which treats children regardless of their families' ability to pay.

The Kirkland Turkey Trot begins and ends at Juanita Beach Park in Kirkland, Washington, offering 5K, 10K, and Kids Race distances. This yearly November event is designed for families and casual runners, as well as those aiming for a personal best, and it signals the start of the local holiday period. The course follows Kirkland’s waterfront, passing through Juanita Bay Park with views over Lake Washington toward the Seattle skyline. Participants will return via the historic Market Street Bridge. Some course details also mention Lake Washington Boulevard towards Carillon Point and back. Following the race, the gathering takes place at Moss Bay Hall in downtown Kirkland.

The Magnuson Series Seattle Turkey Trot, a Thanksgiving run/walk in Seattle, offers 5K, 10K, and 15K races. All three start simultaneously, preceded by a 400-meter kids dash. As the series' largest event, it requires more attention to bib pickup, arrival time, and carpooling than smaller park races. The event is chip timed, awarding prizes to top finishers in each distance. Free race photos will be available on each runner’s results page. The race supports Food Lifeline, the featured charity. Participants can bring food items to the registration shelter for the University Food Bank. Awards are presented by distance: 5K first, then 10K, and finally 15K. All parking lots are utilized, and some drivers may experience delays exiting due to runners crossing nearby roads, with traffic released in intervals by crossing guards. Volunteers can receive complimentary race vouchers for themselves or others, or fulfill community service hours.

The February Run or Wine 5K Series combines a run or walk with a tasting, making the finish line nearly as important as the course. Participants can select a 5K or a 10K. Registration includes the run or walk and a wine tasting, with beer, cider, and non-alcoholic options also offered. The series is designed for runners, walkers, and those seeking a relaxed outing with a drink afterward. Run 2 Be Fit has organized the Run or Wine 5K Series since 2014. Entry also provides complimentary race photo downloads and post-race refreshments.
