East Helena周辺の10Kレース

Just for the Helena of It is a fall running series in Helena, Montana, offering a half marathon, 10K, 5K, Kids Mini Mile, and virtual options for the three longer distances. Treasure State Runners, a local nonprofit, organizes it to raise money for Helena-area groups supporting physical, mental, and emotional health. The in-person races begin near Country Club Avenue, and participants should anticipate Montana fall weather, which can include rain, sun, or snow. The half marathon and 10K follow out-and-back routes through Helena's historic districts. The 5K provides a course with more open views of the Montana sky. The Kids Mini Mile is a short loop near the finish line, convenient for families to observe. The event accommodates a wide range of participants, from young children in the 5K and Mini Mile to adults in the half marathon. A gathering concludes the races, and the event has contributed $121,000 to Helena charities over four years. Recent fundraising has supported The Friendship Center and Girls Thrive.

The Crossroads Fitness Turkey Trot begins and ends at Crossroads Sports & Fitness on Dearborn Avenue in Helena, Montana, on Thanksgiving morning. This low-cost, untimed fun run and fundraiser offers 1k, 5k, and 10k distances, accommodating families, walkers, runners, and those seeking a holiday workout. Now in its fifth decade, the race benefits local charities, including Helena Food Share, Shodair Children's Hospital, Girls Thrive, Impact Montana, and Helena youth running programs. The 1k follows a small clockwise loop, the 5k uses a larger clockwise loop, and the 10k covers the larger loop twice. The courses are flat and fast, although Helena's weather can sometimes affect traction. Post-run, participants receive bagels and fruit. The event maintains its holiday spirit with a random drawing for turkeys and pies; attendance is required to win.
