Gare di 5K vicino a Homestead

Bubble Run Miami is a foam-filled fun run at Homestead-Miami Speedway in Homestead, Florida. The route is up to 3 miles, but speed is not the point: adults, kids, and people with strollers can run, walk, dance, or play their way through it. Participants usually start in white T-shirts, which makes the colored foam show up fast once they enter the course. The main course feature is a series of Foam Bogs, each filled with a different color of 100% safe foam that can cover runners from head to toe. Bubble-teers are stationed along the way to make sure people get plenty of foam, and the organizers compare the experience to running through Willy Wonka's factory. Starts are managed in waves, with small groups released through each heat, and the event also leans into the costume-and-swag side with merchandise such as T-shirts and tutus.

The Average Joe Run 5K in Miami takes place in Tropical Park, with a route that organizers say follows a beachside path. It is designed for both runners and walkers. The event calls itself the “World’s Easiest 5K,” fitting its relaxed setup rather than a competitive racing format. Fast runners are recognized with awards for the top three men and women overall, and for winners in several age groups. The race’s unique feature is the Average Joe and Average Jane award: the participant finishing exactly in the middle of the pack is honored as the top champion. Each participant receives a personalized bib, a dri-fit event shirt, and a finisher medal. The post-run gathering offers unlimited donuts and coffee.

The Haunted 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon in Homestead, Florida, is a paved road race offering three distances, starting at 8:30 AM.

The 5K and 10K share an out-and-back course, completed once for the 5K and twice for the 10K. The half marathon follows a similar out-and-back format, repeated four times, with a 3 hour 30 minute time limit. The 5K and 10K have a 2 hour limit. All finishers receive medals, and awards are presented. The event contributes to series points, and the Haunted theme is most evident in the best costume award.

The Halloween Trick or Trot Run in Miami is a Halloween-themed run on Key Biscayne, starting from Playita. It offers 5K, 10K, and half-marathon distances, along with a 1.6 km option. The first wave begins at 7:30 AM, with each wave limited to 15 participants, creating a more intimate atmosphere than a large city race. Runners and walkers of all paces are welcome; participants under 18 require a guardian. The event's setup is intentionally uncomplicated. There are no timing chips, no pre-race packet pickup, and no special equipment is necessary. Bibs are distributed on race day, and coordinators can assist participants in tracking their times by bib number. Final details and course maps are emailed the Wednesday before the run. Each participant receives a running shirt by mail, and late registrants may wear any appropriate shirt if their official one has not yet arrived. Simple Halloween elements are included: finishers receive candy post-run, can request a medal via email, and gain access to a virtual runner community.

Sofia's Hope Reason to Run 5K è un evento, puoi correrlo o camminarlo, che si tiene lì vicino a Miami, nella zona di Deering Estate. La gara di persona è ai primi di novembre, ma c'è anche l'opzione virtuale da fine ottobre fino ai primi di novembre. Quest'anno siamo alla 19ª edizione e l'evento serve a supportare Sofia's Hope, che è un'organizzazione no-profit che si occupa del cancro infantile. Non è solo una gara competitiva, ma è più che altro una corsa, una raccolta fondi e un'occasione per stare insieme in famiglia. Il percorso ti porta attraverso la zona di Deering Estate, per poi arrivare a un Family Festival che si affaccia su Biscayne Bay. Al festival troverai cibo, bevande, musica, attività, premi per chi raccoglie più fondi e una photo wall. Si prevedono circa qualche centinaio di partecipanti. I primi 425 iscritti, sia che partecipino di persona o virtualmente, riceveranno una medaglia e una maglietta ufficiali. Chi fa la gara virtuale può completare il suo 5K da qualsiasi posto durante il periodo dell'evento e gli verrà spedito tutto a casa dopo. Puoi anche avviare raccolte fondi individuali o di squadra; se raccogli $100, ti rimborsano la quota di iscrizione. I piccoli "guerrieri" locali che lottano contro il cancro infantile e le loro famiglie sono invitati come ospiti e hanno diritto all'iscrizione gratuita.

PB&J Fuel Run 5K/10K/13.1 MIAMI is a Miami running event with three distance choices: 5K, 10K, and half marathon. The peanut butter and jelly theme gives the series its identity, and the event leans toward easygoing participation instead of a high-pressure race-day feel. Runners are encouraged to choose their own pace, so the setup fits walkers, casual runners, and anyone using the day for a longer effort. The main hook is simple: pick a distance, keep the mood light, and finish a PB&J-themed run in Miami.

Run MIAMI The Magic City 5K/10K/13.1 Fall is a small group run in Key Biscayne, Florida, offering 5K, 10K, and half marathon distances.
