Corridas de 10K perto de Minden

The Salute to Veterans 5K/10K/Half Marathon takes place at Walker Place Park in Bossier City, Louisiana, situated across the Red River from Shreveport. Participants can select a 5K, 10K, or half marathon, accommodating short-distance runners, those training for longer distances, and individuals seeking a local race focused on military appreciation. The event honors veterans directly: veterans receive free entry, and active duty military can participate at a reduced cost with a government-issued military ID. Family and supporters may register at the standard rate. All participants will receive a race shirt and a custom finisher medal. Awards will be presented to the top three male and female overall finishers in each distance.

Run Caney is a trail race in Kisatchie National Forest near Minden, Louisiana, starting and finishing at the park’s Day Use Area. Participants can choose from three options: a 3-mile 5K walk or run, a 6-mile trail race, or a 12-mile trail race. The event includes the standard park usage fee. The course loops around Upper Caney Lake on natural forest terrain, featuring oak flats, small hills, and a moderate amount of rocks and roots. It avoids significant climbs and highly technical obstacles, making it suitable for first-time trail runners while still offering a solid dirt-and-forest experience for regular trail runners. The organizers call it “Old School Style,” with awards reflecting this: overall male and female winners in each distance are recognized, and age-group winners receive handmade ornaments.

The Gingerbread Lane 5K & 10K is a holiday race in Shreveport, held at Walker Place Park. Participants can select a 1-mile run, a 5K, or a 10K. For families with young children, there is a 50-meter Kids Dash. The event also offers a virtual run and a "Volunteer then Run" 5K option. The race embraces the Christmas theme with music by DJ Sasquatch and holiday treats at the finish line. Finishers receive cookies and a glass of milk, departing from the typical banana-and-water offering, creating a simple gingerbread-party atmosphere. The variety of distances, including a kids sprint and a 10K, positions it as a family holiday running event rather than a competition exclusively for serious runners.
