The Fried Chicken Festival 5K Run | Walk begins on Lakeshore Drive in New Orleans, near the National Fried Chicken Festival entrance. This morning 5K is scheduled for the festival weekend, accommodating competitive runners, casual walkers, children, families with strollers, and students. The race takes place before the festival opens, followed by a post-race gathering featuring food, drinks, and entertainment. A 5K registration includes admission to the National Fried Chicken Festival with all-day re-entry, positioning the run as the initial activity of a longer festival day. A 1-mile Kids Fun Run is available for participants aged 12 and under, and group discounts are offered for parties of five or more registering together.

The NOLA Dogs Race to the Rescue is an annual 5K run/walk on the grounds of Heaven's Pets at Lake Lawn Metairie Cemetery in New Orleans. It is a fundraiser for animal rescue groups in South Louisiana, with money going to no-kill nonprofit rescues around New Orleans. The 5K is for people only, and runners and walkers can also enter virtually. The event is built around dogs even though they do not run the 5K: pets can join the Second Line Dog Parade and the Blessing of the Pets. NOLA DOGS Charitable Giving is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) founded by JoAnne Casey, owner of Alice and Amelia, and it also runs a major dog auction every October. The group has raised $225,000, supporting rescues that often care for heartworm-positive animals needing immediate veterinary treatment.

The Corporate Classic 5K is a 3.1-mile road race in New Orleans' City Park, held on the second Saturday in November at 8:00 AM. The start is near the Louisiana Children's Museum, and the event welcomes walkers, joggers, and runners. Participants can register individually or form teams with friends or colleagues, fostering a community and workplace atmosphere rather than a purely competitive one. This race also serves a key function: it is the sole 5K qualifier for seeded positions in the Crescent City Classic 10K. The course remains within City Park, offering a direct local 5K before the post-race activities commence. To secure a Crescent City Classic 10K seed, participants must finish in under 27 minutes; the first seeded corral requires a time under 22:30. Corporate teams are categorized by company size, ranging from small businesses to organizations with over 500 employees, with team scores based on the six fastest finishers. Contributions benefit the YMCA Adult Literacy Program. The finish area features medals, shirts, chip-timed bibs, individual and team awards, food, beverages, a live band, a Kids Zone, complimentary child-watch, and an appearance by the Saints mascot GUMBO.

The Tunnel to Towers 5K Run & Walk in the New Orleans area is a 3.1-mile run-or-walk event based in Harvey, with finish-area logistics tied to Gretna. It is not a timed race, so the day leans more toward participation, remembrance, and fundraising than chasing official results. Walkers, runners, wheelchair users, and people with strollers are welcome, while the fastest runners can line up in a front corral if they expect to run under six minutes per mile. The series honors Stephen Siller, the New York City firefighter who ran through the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel toward the Twin Towers after the September 11 attacks. The New Orleans event supports the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation, with proceeds and donations helping first responders and military families. Firefighter turnout gear and military backpacks are allowed and encouraged, which gives the field a visible link to the people the event is built around.

The ASH Foundation Run/Walk 5K/3K is a December run and walk held in New Orleans, offering in-person 3K and 5K races that begin early in the morning. The course guides participants along the Riverwalk and through Woldenberg Park. These shorter distances keep runners and walkers near the Mississippi riverfront, avoiding a lengthy road course. Virtual 3K and 5K options are also available for those wishing to participate on their own course and support the event. The event is open to adults, with standard and trainee entry options for both distances. All funds collected from individual and group registrations, as well as additional donations, directly benefit ASH's Foundation. Participants in the in-person event must collect their race packets before race day at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. Packets include a commemorative shirt, safety pins, and a chip-timed bib. Race-day registration and packet pickup will not be available.

The Mulberry Cougar Classic begins and ends at Mulberry Elementary’s campus on Cougar Drive in Houma, Louisiana. A kids’ 1-mile Little Cougars Fun Run takes place before the Cougar Classic 5K. Both races are scheduled for a Saturday in January. The fun run starts in the morning, with the 5K following soon after. Chipped bibs provide accurate timing, ensuring the 5K is a formally timed event, though the day is designed for families and the school community. The 5K course loops through the neighborhood, while the shorter race offers children their own event before the main field departs. Awards are presented after the races conclude, followed by a family picnic and fun day on school grounds featuring food and games. Proceeds from the race support the school, including outdoor recess and PE areas, and classroom resources for teachers. Donations are welcomed from those unable to run, and all are encouraged to participate in the post-race activities.

Family outing? This run is perfect. Kids ages 5-17 can sign up and run for free. The route goes through Thibodaux’s historic Downtown District to the fairgrounds. Everyone gets commemorative Firemen’s Race Medals and refreshments. Enjoy the Thibodaux Firemen's Fair Fun Run and 5k.
