Corridas de 5K perto de Willard

The Tiffin Zombie Run is a Halloween-season 5K run/walk in Tiffin, Ohio. A 1-mile walk is available for those seeking a shorter option. Participants wear sashes, and zombies positioned along the course attempt to remove them before the finish line. The event welcomes all ages, functioning more as a community costume event than a competitive 5K. The race features separate starts for zombies, the 5K, and the 1-mile walk, concluding with refreshments and an awards ceremony. Awards are given to top finishers by age and gender, plus a best costume prize. Proceeds benefit CASA of Seneca, Sandusky, and Wyandot Counties, supporting the training of local volunteers who advocate in court for abused and neglected children.

O Mansfield and Lexington Turkey Trot começa e termina na historic B&O Railway Trail, que fica atrás da Heartland Church em Lexington, Ohio. Essa série de provas de Thanksgiving Day tem Kids Fun Run e, na sequência, half marathon, 10K e 5K. Também rolam opções virtuais de 5K, 10K e half marathon, então dá pra participar sem estar no percurso em Ohio. As provas presenciais têm chip timing, com resultado na hora pra quem cruzar a linha de chegada. O percurso usa a railway trail em formato bate e volta, com a mesma área de largada e chegada. O evento entra no clima do feriado: dá pra escolher entre chapéus de turkey, elf ou Santa (cerca de 20 opções), tutu, camiseta de manga longa ou o hoodie opcional "Burning Thighs Before Pies". Todo inscrito recebe bib personalizado, medalha de finisher, snacks, bebidas e uma sobremesa tipo tortinha individual, donut ou cookie. Strollers são permitidos no percurso; dogs não, mas podem ficar na área de largada e chegada.

The Turkey-Wanis 5K is a Thanksgiving morning 5K in Wellington, Ohio, sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Wellington. It is open as a race or walk, suitable for runners seeking a quick holiday effort and individuals preferring a shorter community event before the day's activities. The route crosses residential Wellington on a flat, fast, accurate course. The event, formerly the Thrive Turkey 5, gives awards to age-group runners and the top male and female finishers. It includes a small Thanksgiving tradition: every registrant is entered into a Pumpkin Pie raffle. Free parking is available at the stadium.

The Dukes 5K & Fun Run begins on the Wellington High School track in Wellington, Ohio. The 5K route starts from the stadium and concludes on the same track. This event features a timed 5K race and a 1-mile Fun Run. Gates open at 8:00 AM, with the 5K commencing at 9:00 AM. This marks the sixth year of the fundraiser for the Wellington High School Track and Field team, held regardless of weather conditions. The 5K course exits the stadium, circles the town, and returns to the track. The Fun Run, however, remains within the stadium, consisting of four laps around the track after the 5K participants have departed. The theme for this year is Heroes and Villains, inviting participants to wear costumes of their favorite heroes or villains. All participants will receive a themed finisher T-shirt and a custom Dukes 5K medal. Awards will be presented to the top male and female finishers overall, as well as to winners in various age groups ranging from 13-and-under to 60-and-up.
