Gare di 10K vicino a Suffield

The Husky Run & Ruck takes place during Veterans Day weekend in Storrs, Connecticut. It features a 10K run, a 5K run, and an untimed 1-mile fitness walk. The event is centered at UConn, with ceremonies before and after the races held outside the Student Recreation Center. All three main events begin on Hillside Road in the morning. The 5K has a distinct start area, separate from the 10K and walk. The 10K route follows the Bonemill loop through the rural Mansfield-Storrs area. All courses include a pass by the Ultimate Sacrifice Memorial on the Great Lawn. Proceeds benefit scholarships for military and veteran students, as well as the Kyle Milliken Fund. This fund honors Navy SEAL Kyle Jeffrey Milliken, a former UConn Track & Field walk-on who died in service. A Blackhawk helicopter landing on the Great Lawn adds a military presence, complementing the standard start line ceremony. A Kids Run concludes under the Hillside Road arch following the primary races.

Gordy's First Race is a New Year's Day road race in Westfield, Massachusetts, offering 5K and 10K distances. Participants begin the year by running up West Silver Street, often in winter conditions, with the event benefiting the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Westfield. The race honors Gordon Bates, a member of the Empire One Running Club who previously organized races for the same club benefit. This tradition dates back to an annual half marathon and 10K held with the Boys & Girls Club, which saw 141 runners in its first half marathon. The current race maintains its focus on local running club heritage and its charitable mission: participants run a manageable distance on New Year's Day, with proceeds supporting the club.
