The Prairie Moon 5K Pumpkin Fun Run begins and ends at Prairie Moon Waldorf School in Lawrence, Kansas. It features a timed 5K for adults and other runners, alongside a short, untimed obstacle-course run for children. This event serves as a public community fundraiser for the school. Adult 5K registration includes a shirt, and a children’s shirt is available for the fun run. The 5K route departs the school onto gravel roads and trails, incorporating the Mud Creek levee trail, before returning to campus. The course is timed but not certified. Strollers are permitted, but sturdy tires are recommended for the gravel sections. Following the run, the school grounds transform into a fall gathering with activities such as pumpkin painting, chess, tacos, coffee, and baked goods. Prizes from local stores are awarded to top finishers, and a Garmin watch raffle includes all 5K registrants.

The Topeka Turkey Trot is a Thanksgiving morning race held in Topeka, Kansas, organized by Fleet Feet. It features a 10K, a 5K, and a Kids Turkey Trot 1K. The longer races begin earlier, with the children’s race scheduled for later in the morning. The designated race location is SE Croco Road, though specific course maps and future site details are still being finalized. This event is in its second year and aims to encourage physical activity before the holiday meal. Participants include runners, walkers, families, experienced racers, first-timers, and children, making it a community gathering rather than solely a competitive event. The race emphasizes gratitude, togetherness, and creating an appetite for post-race pie.

The Lawrence Shamrock Shuffle begins and ends at Johnny's Tavern in Lawrence, Kansas, offering 5K, 10K, Family 5K, and virtual race choices. This event aligns with the Lawrence St. Patrick's Day Parade, taking place annually during the St. Patrick's season. Participants are encouraged to wear green or other Irish-themed attire. The 10K provides a less common distance for local runners, and the shorter races accommodate families and casual participants. The courses follow the river levee, extend into North Lawrence, and traverse the historic North Lawrence and Pinkney neighborhoods. Aid stations are positioned approximately every 1.5 to 2 miles. Awards are presented to overall winners, Masters and Super Masters, and the top three in each age category. Registration covers a race shirt and a participation award. Post-race refreshments feature an Irish breakfast from Johnny's North and the parade committee. Proceeds benefit Douglas County children's charities selected by the Lawrence St. Patrick's Day Parade Committee.

Club CAN Dash-Neurodiversity in Motion begins at 9:00 a.m. at Shawnee Mission Park, 7710 Renner Rd. in Shawnee, Kansas. The event features a 5K and a 1 Mile Run/Walk/Roll/Kids Run. The 5K is open to participants who wish to run, walk, or roll, not solely compete for time. This is a family-friendly spring event that benefits Club CAN, which stands for Community Appreciating Neurodiversity Inc. The shorter distance is open to ages 5 and up. Club CAN’s wider mission focuses on providing social opportunities for neurodivergent individuals from middle school through adulthood. Packet pick-up is available on race day before the start, and also on Thursday evening. Registration includes a t-shirt, with supplies guaranteed through early April. This is the first annual Club CAN Dash and includes an After Bash. The morning is designed around movement, fundraising, and spending time together after the race.
