The Day of the Dead Half Marathon - Austin begins at 8 a.m. from Tanger Outlets in Austin, Texas. The primary event is a 13.1-mile half marathon, with shorter options available: a 5K, a quarter marathon, a 1-mile run, a Kids Dash, a virtual run, and a Volunteer then Run option. The Texas Parks Edition guides runners through parkland featuring lakes, trees, and shaded natural paths, differing from a downtown-only route. Bigfoot Running Company is the organizer. The Day of the Dead theme provides the race with a distinct focus: a run connected to life, memory, and remembrance. Aid stations will be on the course for hydration, and the variety of distances allows families, beginners, and half marathoners to participate together on the same race day.

The MK5K Killeen is an annual, in-person 5K race held in Killeen, Texas, supporting the Mary Kay Ash Foundation.

The course map is provided to participants instead of being published beforehand. Runners and walkers of all paces are welcome, and participants under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian.

The event supports Hope Alliance, an organization providing services, partnerships, healing, and prevention for individuals impacted by family and sexual violence. The course begins near the Cypress Pavilion, proceeds along the trail to the 1.5-mile marker by the Rivery Boulevard Bridge, and then returns to the starting point. Prizes are awarded to the top three male and female finishers in age categories ranging from 14 and under to 70 and over, offering a competitive element for serious runners while remaining accessible for families and casual participants.

Spooky Sprint-Austin is a Halloween-themed running event in Austin, held in October. It offers a half marathon, 10K, 5K, 1 mile, kids dash, virtual race, and a volunteer-then-run entry. The event is designed for families and casual groups alongside competitive runners: the 5K, 10K, and half marathon are chip-timed with live results and awards, while the 1 mile and kids dash are untimed. The event provides finishers with race swag, including custom bibs, designer shirts, and medals for the main distances. The kids dash includes a mini bib, youth shirt, and a child-specific medal. Children 10 and under can participate in the kids dash for free if they forgo the swag. The 5K and 10K also have reduced pricing for participants 12 and under. Finish-line treats, free participant photos, and a virtual option contribute to the race's playful atmosphere, even for timed runners who receive results and awards.

The Inks Lake Trail Run/Ruck is an off-road event held in mid-October at 3630 Park Road 4 West in Burnet, Texas.

The event is designed to accommodate various trail participants, not just a single group. Ultra runners, marathoners, shorter-distance runners, ruckers carrying weight, and young children each have separate starts, with staggered start times based on distance. All participants receive event merchandise, though the deadline for guaranteed shirts is before race day, meaning late registrants may not receive one.

Fields of Gold Trail Run takes place in the fall at Shaffer Bend Recreation Area in Marble Falls, Texas, within the Texas Hill Country. The series offers runners a wide selection of distances: 50K, marathon, half marathon, a 12-hour endurance challenge, a 1-hour Gold Hour challenge, 10K, and 5K. The course is designed with dirt and park terrain, featuring rolling hills, meadow trails, lakeside paths, golden grasslands, wooded valleys, and overlooks across the bend area. The longer races cover the most varied terrain. The half marathon is presented as challenging yet accessible for runners not aiming for an ultra distance. The 12-hour event focuses on total miles accumulated rather than a set finish time, with aid stations and support available throughout the day. The 1-hour race applies the same endurance concept in a condensed format. The 5K Harvest Fun Run serves as the family-friendly option, winding through the meadows. The event also supports HKRS Cedar Park Youth Running Programs, connecting race day activities with local youth running initiatives.

Wizard Run Austin is a costume-friendly 5K and 1 mile fun run in Austin, timed for the Halloween season.

The event embraces its magic theme before the running begins. A Grand Sorcerer teaches the crowd new spells, fog covers the start gate, music plays, sparks and colored effects are displayed, and a loud horn signals the witches and wizards onto a themed route through town with staged sights and sounds along the way.

Halloween Trick or Trot je Halloweensky beh v Richard Moya Parku v Austine, kde si môžeš vybrať 5K, 10K, half marathon, virtuálnu možnosť alebo rodinný beh na 1 míľu. Beží sa to ráno vo vlnách, pričom každá vlna má obmedzený počet účastníkov, aby to bolo skôr o komornejšej atmosfére v menších skupinkách než o nejakom obrovskom dave. Vítaní sú bežci aj chodci všetkých temp a deti sa môžu zúčastniť s dospelým doprovodom. Detaily trate ti pošlú mailom a štartové čísla rozdávajú v deň pretekov, takže žiadne klasické vyzdvihovanie balíčka vopred. Meranie času je voliteľné; môžeš použiť appku, poprosiť o pomoc koordinátorov, alebo sa na čipové meranie úplne vykašľať. Halloweenske vychytávky zahŕňajú sladkosti po behu, medaily pre finisherov, tričká posielané na adresy v U.S., uterák alebo nejakú drobnosť, online výsledky a certifikát o dokončení. Organizátor tiež ponúka pozvánky do miestnych bežeckých klubov, virtuálnu možnosť, ak sa vlny zaplnia, a charitatívnu zložku, kde nabehané kilometre po pretekoch môžu prispieť k darom.
