10K preteky v blízkosti Peralta

Sandia Mountain Shadows Trail Run má štart a cieľ v Piedra Lisa Parku na Menaul Boulevard v severovýchodnom Albuquerque, priamo pod úpätím Sandia. Toto každoročné jesenné podujatie ponúka trate na 10K a 5K, pričom desaťká štartuje skôr ako päťká. Preteky organizuje RunFit, neziskovka z New Mexico, ktorá týmto podporuje svoje iniciatívy v boji proti detskej obezite. Trať ťa prevedie oblasťou blízko Menaul a úpätia, odkiaľ sú super výhľady na Albuquerque, Rio Grande Valley a Sandia Mountains. Podľa organizátorov môžeš dole sledovať aj teplovzdušné balóny. Všetci, čo dobehnú 5K alebo 10K, dostanú medailu a tričko. Ocenenia sú pre celkových víťazov a najlepších v kategóriách, ktorí použili oficiálny čip na štartovom čísle. Je to už dvadsiaty druhý ročník a preteky si udržiavajú takú tú lokálnu Albuquerque trail morning atmosféru, nie je to ako nejaký obrovský cestný pretek.

The Great Balloon Chase takes runners through Albuquerque with hot air balloons overhead from the world's largest ballooning event. The series offers a half marathon, 10K, and 5K run/walk, all starting and finishing at Los Poblanos Fields Open Space in the Rio Grande River Valley. The race pairs a regular running lineup with a distinct Albuquerque setting: balloons above, the Sandia Mountains nearby, and open fields around the start and finish. RaceNM presents the event; the half marathon is open to runners age 16 and older. The 10th anniversary includes commemorative jackets for the first 1,000 registrants.

Little Rock Marathon sa beží v Little Rock, Arkansas, vždy prvý marcový víkend. Hlavnou udalosťou je certifikovaný marathon na 26.2 míľ, ktorý ide jedným okruhom. Založili ho v 2003, má certifikáciu USATF a je kvalifikáciou na Boston Marathon. Láka bežcov aj chodcov zo všetkých 50 štátov a z vyše 15 krajín. Pomáha tomu aj 8-hodinový limit na marathon a 4-hodinový na half-marathon. Okrem toho ponúkajú bezplatný celoročný tréningový program a zbierajú peniaze pre Little Rock Parks & Recreation. Trať štartuje a končí v Downtown Little Rock a prechádza cez Arkansas River. Uvidíš tam pamiatky ako Arkansas State Capitol, River Market District, Clinton Presidential Center, Governor's Mansion, MacArthur Birthplace/Military Museum a Historic Little Rock Central High School. Trať nie je rovná; najväčší kopec príde hneď na začiatku, potom už len menšie kopčeky. Bežec Bill Rodgers k tomu poznamenal, že Little Rock je "a little salty". Na akcii sú aj zábavné prvky, napríklad každý rok iná téma, tematický tovar a výzdoba na expu, účastníci v kostýmoch, couch potato mile, Lipstick Stop a veľká medaila pre finisherov, ktorá je vraj každý rok o kúsok väčšia.

Cohen Law Partners is the title sponsor, with Fleet Feet and Incycle listed as community sponsors.

The race supports JCI Santa Clarita and Students Off And Running, a local program providing youth ages 14 to 18 a supported Los Angeles Marathon training experience at no cost. Virtual 5K and 10K entries are available for domestic runners, including a tech T-shirt and finisher medal shipped within the continental United States.

Run with Joy starts and finishes at Canteen Brewhouse on Aztec Road NE in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It is an annual unicorn-themed race morning with four distances: a 13.1-mile half marathon, 10K, 5K, and 1 Miler. The half marathon goes off first, the 10K and 5K follow together, and the mile starts a few minutes later, so the event works for runners who want a longer effort and people who just want a short, social run. The course is an out-and-back route on the North Diversion Channel Trail, a shared path that is mostly flat except for small rises and drops where it passes under major streets. Aid stations, hydration, and porta potties are placed at several points. Finish-line perks lean into the brewery setting: half marathon, 10K, and 5K runners get a medal, shirt, beer or root beer, and a breakfast burrito, while 1 Miler participants get the drink and burrito without the shirt or medal. The event is in its fifth annual running.

It accommodates a wide range of runners, from those aiming for a fast marathon time to families participating in the shorter events and Kids K.

Organizers describe it as flat and fast, suitable for runners seeking a personal best or a simple city-and-river route.
