Autumn Harvest Trail Weekend is a two-day trail running series at Lake Bastrop in the Lost Pines area of Central Texas, held in the fall. The weekend offers a range of events from short trail races to long endurance efforts, with options including a 5K, 5-miler, 10K, 10-miler, 20-miler, half marathon, marathon, 50K, and a Last Standing ultra. Saturday is the Ultra & Distance Day, featuring the longest events designed for runners seeking hours on dirt trails. The courses traverse fast dirt trails alongside Lake Bastrop, featuring winding lakeside sections, open skies, and tall pines. The most unique event is the Last Standing ultra: participants begin at Basecamp on the Gideon Loop and complete a 4.17-mile loop each hour. This format can extend to 24 loops, approximately 100 miles, with a 50-runner limit and a cumulative-time tiebreaker if necessary. The 9:00 AM start time means runners will face the heat of the day, sunset around the tenth hour, a full night, and potentially into the next morning if they meet the hourly cutoff.

The Bagel Run in Austin/Round Rock, Texas, offers 5K, 10K, and half-marathon distances, along with a Family 1 Mile Fun Run. A virtual run and a no-shirt Eco-Registration for the three main distances are also available. The in-person race employs capped waves; entries may close as each wave fills, with a waitlist or virtual option for those who miss a spot. The run begins at Richard Moya Park. The course map is provided to participants instead of being published beforehand. Runners and walkers of all paces are welcome, and participants under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian. Timing is optional, allowing individuals to use an app to track their run and submit the result later. Best Races organizes this as a private group run, extending invitations to local run clubs and offering bagels post-race.

Spooky Sprint-Austin is a Halloween-themed running event in Austin, held in October. It offers a half marathon, 10K, 5K, 1 mile, kids dash, virtual race, and a volunteer-then-run entry. The event is designed for families and casual groups alongside competitive runners: the 5K, 10K, and half marathon are chip-timed with live results and awards, while the 1 mile and kids dash are untimed. The event provides finishers with race swag, including custom bibs, designer shirts, and medals for the main distances. The kids dash includes a mini bib, youth shirt, and a child-specific medal. Children 10 and under can participate in the kids dash for free if they forgo the swag. The 5K and 10K also have reduced pricing for participants 12 and under. Finish-line treats, free participant photos, and a virtual option contribute to the race's playful atmosphere, even for timed runners who receive results and awards.

L'Halloween Trick or Trot è una gara a tema Halloween che si tiene al Richard Moya Park ad Austin. Ci sono diverse opzioni: 5K, 10K, half marathon, virtuale e una 1-mile per le famiglie. Le partenze sono a ondate al mattino, e ogni ondata ha un numero chiuso per creare un'atmosfera più intima, non il solito evento enorme e affollato. Corridori e camminatori di tutti i ritmi sono i benvenuti, e i bambini possono partecipare, ma sempre accompagnati da un adulto. I dettagli del percorso li mandano via email ai partecipanti, e i pettorali li ritiri il giorno stesso della gara, così non devi fare il classico ritiro pacco gara. Il cronometraggio è facoltativo: puoi usare un'app, chiedere aiuto ai coordinatori, oppure rinunciare del tutto al chip per il tempo. Gli elementi a tema Halloween includono caramelle dopo la corsa, medaglie da finisher, magliette spedite agli indirizzi negli U.S., un asciugamano o un gadget, risultati online e un certificato di completamento. L'organizzatore offre anche inviti a club di corsa locali, un'opzione virtuale nel caso le ondate si riempissero, e una componente di beneficenza dove i chilometri registrati dopo la gara possono contribuire a donazioni.

The Salmagundi Trail Race follows the Pedernales River at Reimers Ranch in the Texas Hill Country. It begins and ends on Hamilton Pool Road in Dripping Springs, near Austin. This November event offers distances from 5K and 10K to a half marathon, marathon, and a 50K ultra. Runners can use it for their first trail run, a quick race, or a long day on the trails. The event has a 500-participant limit and is part of the Texas Trail Championship. The course is entirely off-road, featuring wide double track, narrower single track, and jeep trail. It includes rolling climbs, not steep mountain ascents. The 5K has approximately 180 feet of elevation gain, and the half marathon has about 700 feet. The marathon course consists of the half-marathon loop run twice, while the ultra adds a 10K loop to two half-marathon loops. A Ruck Division is also available, requiring specific pack weights, pre- and post-race weigh-ins, and prohibiting trekking poles. Custom awards from Southern Forge and Mill are given to finishers. The race supports Austin Sunshine Camps, and the post-race activities include live music and local food trucks.

Il Justice Run Austin è una gara che si tiene al Travis County Exposition Center su Decker Lane ad Austin, Texas, con diverse distanze: marathon, half marathon, 10K e 5K. Si corre a novembre, ma la data e la location esatte sono ancora da confermare in base ai permessi. Per la marathon, occhio che l'impegno è più tosto delle gare brevi: hai un cut-off di cinque ore precise per via dei tempi di chiusura delle strade, e se pensi di metterci più di quattro ore e mezza, ti consigliano la half marathon. L'evento è nato nel 2021 con una missione di raccolta fondi legata all'assistenza per i sopravvissuti alla tratta di esseri umani. I soldi raccolti vanno a The Justice Residences, delle case di recupero a lungo termine pensate per ospitare fino a 100 sopravvissuti alla volta, con un'assistenza che dura da uno a tre anni. Da quando è iniziato, migliaia di corridori hanno partecipato, e l'evento è pensato per un sacco di partecipanti diversi, dai marathoner alle famiglie che fanno la 5K; i bambini fino ai cinque anni possono iscriversi gratis alla 5K, anche se l'iscrizione non include la borsa del corridore o la maglietta.

The Veterans Day Freedom Run in the Austin/Round Rock area begins at Richard Moya Park in Austin and takes place annually near Veterans Day. Participants can select a 1 mile, 5K, 10K, or half marathon, with a virtual option available for those unable to attend in person. The event is designed to be small, featuring capped waves instead of a large field, and all running paces are welcome. Individuals under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian. The course map is distributed via email shortly before race day, meaning public information emphasizes the event's format over its terrain. This is a low-pressure run without timing chips; participants may use Strava, RunKeeper, Nike Run, or similar apps to track their progress, or request assistance from coordinators. Registration covers a mailed shirt, race-day bib, finisher medal, a towel or giveaway item, a digital training pack, online results, and a completion certificate. Participants also have the option to fundraise for a charity of their choice, with all net proceeds directed to that organization.
