The Community Energy Run is a 5K for those seeking a straightforward run or walk directly supporting local utility assistance. Registration fees fund the Community Energy Fund, aiding families in Snohomish County and on Camano Island facing difficulties with utility bills. A virtual participation option is available, allowing individuals to join remotely without attending the event venue. The event welcomes runners, walkers, and community members who wish to offer their support. Participants can engage with sponsors to learn about their backing of local initiatives and view live demonstrations from the Snohomish PUD Water Utility. The core objective is evident: involvement assists in keeping local families warm, secure, and provided for during periods of challenging energy expenses.

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 Woodinville Turkey Trot 5K is a Thanksgiving morning run and walk in Woodinville, featuring a flat 3.1-mile course with chip timing. It offers competitive runners an opportunity to push their pace, while remaining accessible for those who simply wish to be active before their holiday meal. The event welcomes a diverse group of participants: competitive athletes, recreational runners, walkers, and families. A key tradition is its timing: it takes place on Thanksgiving Day with friends and family, offering a short race before the turkey dinner.

The 12Ks of Christmas is a 12K and relay race with a Christmas theme, held at the Pilot YMCA, beginning at 8 a.m. Participants can run individually, as a two-person relay, or as a three-person relay. This format accommodates both those seeking the full 12K distance and teams dividing the mileage. The racecourse consists of 4K greenway loops originating and concluding at the YMCA. Solo runners cover three loops for the 12K distance. Two-person relay teams divide the race into 4K and 8K legs, while three-person teams each complete one loop. Individual awards are presented to age groups ranging from 10 and under to 70-plus. Relay awards recognize the top three teams in both the two- and three-person categories.

The Bulldog 5K Sleigh Ride Fun Run/Walk is a holiday 5K in Mount Vernon, Washington, with runners and walkers circling the Del Trail at Skagit Playfields. The event starts in the morning and offers a public fun run/walk, plus a separate 5K Sleigh Ride category for current Mount Vernon High School cross country runners. The Del Trail is named for Jess del Bosque, a longtime MVHS distance coach. Participants receive a T-shirt and Santa hat, with MVHS cross country runners leading the starting crowd as “reindeer” in front of the “Santas.” Top finishers in each age group receive ornament medals. Water and hot drinks are served afterward, and proceeds support the Non-School District Mount Vernon Athletic Fund for runners attending cross country summer camp.

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.
