5K preteky v blízkosti Fairhope

Bras Across the CAUSEway 5K & Festival is a timed 5K run or walk held at USS ALABAMA Battleship Memorial Park in Mobile, Alabama, beginning on Battleship Parkway. The event also includes a family-friendly 1-Mile Fun Run, a virtual participation option, and a shirt-only purchase to support the cause. It functions as a community fundraiser for Bras Across the CAUSEway, directing funds to local breast cancer patients via a patient assistance program. The course is straightforward according to public information: the main race is a 5K starting at the battleship park, with runners and walkers participating on the same morning. The festival aspect provides a more relaxed, local atmosphere, encouraging costumes, allowing leashed dogs, and featuring treats from Mobile-area merchants. Its fundraising is direct: proceeds assist patients with costs for gas, groceries, copays, uncovered medical bills, rent, utilities, and other essential needs. The event has taken place for ten years, and local businesses contribute as “Giverbackers,” receiving promotion beyond race day.

Prodisee Pantry Turkey Trot štartuje pri Daphne City Hall v centre Daphne, Alabama, kde si môžeš zabehnúť 5K pretek alebo 1 Mile Fun Run na certifikovanej trati. Tento jesenný komunitný beh podporuje Prodisee Pantry, potravinovú banku v Baldwin County, ktorá už vyše dvadsať rokov pomáha ľuďom v okolí s jedlom a priamou pomocou. Najprv štartuje 5K, potom Fun Run. Takže si prídu na svoje bežci, čo chcú čas, aj rodiny, ktoré radšej kratšiu vzdialenosť. Trať je priamo v centre Daphne, nie niekde na odľahlej ceste. Charakter preteku vychádza z toho, koho podporuje. Prodisee Pantry začínala s dobrovoľnou distribúciou jedla a teraz pomáha obyvateľom Baldwin County pravidelnými distribúciami v Spanish Fort a Stockton. Rodiny už túto banku využili vyše 221 000-krát, aby dostali jedlo. Medzi jej dobrovoľníkov patria mládežnícke skupiny, občianske združenia, školské kluby, cirkevné skupiny a miestne firmy. Turkey Trot ponúka tejto komunite jednoduchý formát preteku: buď bežíš, alebo ideš pešo, stretneš sa pri City Hall a podporíš miestnu potravinovú banku, ktorá sa sústredí na jedlo, povzbudenie a priamu pomoc pre rodiny, ktoré to potrebujú.

The Gobbler 5K, 10K, and 13.1M in Mobile, Alabama, offers three distances: 5K, 10K, and half marathon. All races begin at 8:00 AM. Registration must be completed on RunSignup prior to race day, as there is no on-site signup. Packet pickup is brief, opening 30 minutes before the start and closing 10 minutes before the race. The course is an out-and-back design. The 5K and 10K share a segment, with the 5K completing it twice and the 10K completing it four times. The half marathon uses a longer out-and-back segment, repeated six times. The race has a 3 hour 30 minute time limit, with finisher medals and awards presented. Series points are awarded, and a best costume prize adds a playful holiday element.

Magnolia Run začína a končí pri Jesse’s Restaurant v Magnolia Springs, Alabama. Hlavnou črtou je USATF-certified 5K trať. Toto každoročné podujatie má jednoduchý formát: 5K run, 5K walk a 1 Mile Fun Run. Chodí tam okolo 300 účastníkov, má to takú komunitnú atmosféru, nie ako tie veľké mestské preteky, a v pohode môžeš ísť aj s kočíkom alebo so psom. Na 5K sú vekové kategórie, plus "overall", "masters", "grand masters", "senior grand masters" a "wheelchair" kategórie pre mužov aj ženy. Chodci majú tiež vlastné vekové kategórie a tí, čo idú "fun run", dostanú medaily. Časť z každého štartovného ide na podporu The Sea Glass Initiative. Po pretekoch bude jedlo od Jesse’s Restaurant a vyhlasovanie výsledkov bude vnútri v Magnolia Springs Community Hall.

The Coastal Half Marathon, 5K & 1 Mile Fun Run is a post-Thanksgiving race weekend in Orange Beach, Alabama. It offers three distances: a half marathon, a 5K, and a 1-mile fun run. The half marathon is for runners age 15 and up; the shorter events are suitable for families and mixed groups. The races utilize paved sections of Gulf State Park’s Backcountry Trail, avoiding busy beach-road running. The course winds through the coastal park landscape near Gulf Shores and Orange Beach. This event marks its 19th running and embraces its holiday timing. Participants often attend after Thanksgiving, running with family or friends, and conclude near the Gulf air, rather than making the race a separate trip.

The Sea Turtle & Sweetheart Running Festival is a beach-side running event in Gulf Shores, Alabama. All races start and finish at The Hangout on East Beach Boulevard. Runners can select the Sea Turtle Half Marathon, True Love 10K, Sweetheart 5K Run/Walk, or Be Mine 1 Mile. This variety accommodates those seeking a timed longer race and those preferring a short run or walk by the beach. The half marathon begins first, followed later in the morning by the 10K, 5K, and mile. All four races are timed, and awards are available for competitors. The Hangout also hosts the post-race party. Each registration includes food and beer tickets; beer is restricted to participants aged 21 and over. The race names reflect both the sea turtle theme and the Valentine’s timing, lending the festival a more relaxed, social atmosphere compared to a standard single-distance road race.
