Gare di 10K vicino a Millington

The Spooky Sprint - Memphis is a Halloween-themed run held at Shelby Farms-Mullins Station Event Field in Cordova, Tennessee. The event offers a variety of race options for families and groups of all abilities, including a Kids Dash, 1 Mile, 5K, 10K, Half Marathon, Virtual Race, and a Volunteer then Run option. As part of Bodies Race Company’s Holiday Series, the focus is on costumes, group enjoyment, and accessible distances rather than a purely competitive racing environment. The in-person races feature chip timing, live results, and awards. The virtual option allows participants to run from any location and still receive event merchandise. All finishers receive themed items like a designer shirt, custom bib, and medal. Treats and complimentary participant photos enhance the Halloween atmosphere. Youth pricing is available for the 5K and 10K, making it more accessible for children aged 12 and under.

The Peer Power Big River Crossing Race is an annual run and walk in Memphis, utilizing the Big River Crossing over the Mississippi River as its central feature. The Memphis-based Peer Power Foundation hosts this event, bringing runners, walkers, and supporters together for a nonprofit race supporting youth education. This is the race's ninth year, and its purpose is to raise support for tutoring, mentoring, college preparation, and paid student-tutor programs. The route sends participants across the Mississippi on a bridge linking communities on either side of the river. Peer Power’s work gives the race its local weight: college students tutor and mentor high schoolers, University of Memphis students are trained and paid through Earn & Learn, ACT Prep participants raise scores by an average of 3.2 points, and Summer Bridge Camp helps students prepare for college. The field includes runners and walkers, so the day is as much about backing Memphis students as it is about finishing a race.

Turkey Trails - Memphis is an annual Thanksgiving-themed race series in Memphis with options for several kinds of runners and walkers. The main distances are 5K, 10K, and half marathon, with an untimed 1 Mile option for people who want a shorter, easier outing. Children 10 and under can join the Kid's Dash, and kids can run that dash for free if they skip the shirt and medal package. The event is built for families and mixed-ability groups rather than just serious racers. The 5K, 10K, and half marathon are chip-timed, with live results and awards, while the 1 Mile and Kid's Dash keep things untimed. Registrants get race swag such as a custom bib, designer shirt, and finisher medal, with youth-sized gear for the Kid's Dash. Finish-line treats and free participant photos are part of the day, and a virtual option lets people run their own route while still earning the event swag.

On a December race morning in Memphis, runners start at B.B. King Boulevard and Lt. Lee Avenue for a road-race weekend supporting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The offerings include a marathon, half marathon, 10K, 5K, and a 2-Race Challenge, suitable for first-time 5K runners, experienced marathoners, and charity teams. It is the largest single-day fundraiser for St. Jude, with past editions attracting over 22,000 participants and supporters and raising millions of dollars for the hospital. The course follows fast, flat Memphis roads in a roughly counter-clockwise loop through the city. Runners pass Beale Street, the National Civil Rights Museum, the Lorraine Hotel, and the Elvis Presley Memorial, with the half marathon and full marathon sharing much of the early route. Over 4,000 volunteers assist with the weekend each year, and the race’s purpose remains direct: St. Jude families never receive bills for treatment, travel, housing, or food. The event has been held for about 25 years, bringing athletes, volunteers, and supporters from across the country to run for this cause.

Candy Cane Course Chattanooga is an annual Christmas-themed running event in Chattanooga, offering 5K, 10K, 15K, 1-mile, and kids' dash distances. The 5K, 10K, 15K, and 1-mile races begin in the morning. The longer race options include chip timing with live results and awards. The event is designed for families and regular runners alike. Children 12 and under receive discounted pricing for the 5K and 10K. Kids 10 and under can participate in the dash at no cost if they forgo the swag. All finishers receive shirts, custom bibs, and medals, with the specific items varying by race. Free race photos and post-race treats are provided. A virtual option is available for those who wish to receive the shirt and medal but cannot attend in person on race day.

The Cancer Kickers Big Buffalo 50 è una gara trail e su strada a giri che si tiene a Shelby Farms Park a Memphis, e offre distanze da 50-mile, 50K, 50K relay e 10K. L'evento da 50-mile prevede otto giri, il 50K e la staffetta sono di cinque giri, mentre il 10K è di un solo giro, portando i runner a passare sempre nella stessa zona di partenza, arrivo e split. I tempi limite sono 12 ore per la 50-mile, 10 ore per la 50K e 8 ore per la staffetta. Ci sono tre ristori che offrono acqua, Hammer Nutrition Heed, gel, chips, PB&J, frutta, Oreos, barrette di cereali, Snickers e caramelle gommose. La gara è la principale raccolta fondi annuale per il Cancer Kickers Soccer Club, un'organizzazione no-profit di Memphis che fornisce kit da calcio personalizzati ai bambini che lottano contro il cancro. Ogni kit contiene una maglia, un pallone, attrezzatura e messaggi personali; più di 3.200 bambini hanno già ricevuto un kit. L'evento punta a raccogliere $50,000, e ogni kit completo costa $300 per essere consegnato. La correlazione per la raccolta fondi è chiara per i partecipanti: una squadra staffetta sostiene un bambino, quattro runner della 50K sostengono un bambino, e tre runner della 50-mile sostengono un bambino. Le tende per gli accompagnatori e le squadre possono essere montate oltre il traguardo, e i cambi della staffetta avvengono subito dopo la linea di partenza/arrivo/split.
