5K preteky v blízkosti Tyrone

Chernisky Ghost Town Trail-a-thon je októbrové trailové podujatie, ktoré sa koná v Duman Lake County Park v Ebensburgu, Pennsylvania. Týmto podujatím sa uzatvára Cambria County Trails Series, ktorá má jedno podujatie na každom z trailov v Cambria County. Beží sa po Ghost Town Trail, trase, ktorú predtým vyhlásili za Pennsylvania Trail of the Year. Môžeš si vybrať maratón, 15-míľový beh, 5k, 5k pre ľudí s adaptačnými pomôckami, 5k v hasičskej výstroji, alebo "Couch Potato 0.0k" pre tých, čo nechcú pretekať. Dlhšie bežecké preteky končia v Duman Lake County Park. Bude tam doprava z cieľa na štart maratónu a 15-míľového behu. Cyklistická možnosť je pohodová 26.2-míľová skupinová jazda. Začína sa v Duman Lake County Park a ide k Twin Rocks trailhead, po Ghost Town Trail a C & I Extension. Cyklisti môžu využiť občerstvovačky určené pre bežcov. Účasť pre mládež v sérii je zadarmo a všetky výťažky idú na zlepšenie a rozšírenie trailov v Cambria County.

Rowe’s Research Runners Annual Event is a walk, run, and roll fundraiser in Boalsburg, Pennsylvania, with a virtual option for those unable to attend in person. The in-person gathering uses the Pennsylvania Military Museum as its base, and the event supports research into ME/CFS, dysautonomia, long COVID, and related illnesses. This is the ninth annual edition, and registration does not include a T-shirt; shirts and extra merchandise are sold separately. The event originated from Emily Steffensmeier’s birthday fundraiser and her desire to thank Dr. Peter Rowe, the physician who helped her transition from being bedridden toward a fuller life. Rowe’s Research Runners collaborates with Johns Hopkins Children’s Center, and all money raised goes directly to Dr. Rowe and his colleagues at the Chronic Fatigue and Related Disorders Clinic. The cause is personal and medical: Emily has lived with these conditions for 24 years, and the event focuses on fundraising, awareness, and connection for patients and families managing illnesses that can affect the nervous system, immune function, heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, digestion, and daily energy.

Knights on the Run is a road race in North Andover, Massachusetts, organized by NAAA. It features a traditional 5K and a kids run. Check-in and race-day registration begin at 8:30 a.m. at North Andover High School. Walk-in registration is available after online signup closes the previous evening. The kids event, Knights in Training, is for children under 12 and starts at 9:00 a.m. Its grade-group courses for Pre-K through second grade and third through fifth grade are each about a quarter mile. Proceeds support the North Andover Athletic Association, which has backed North Andover athletics for more than 50 years. When construction interrupts the traditional 5K course, the organizer still runs the kids event.

Ten First Night Resolution Run 5K je taká Silvestrovská 5K, čo sa beží v State College, Pennsylvania, a je to spojené s tými ich oslavami First Night. Je to každý rok v decembri a je to taká šanca si ešte na konci roka krátko zabehnúť, kým sa rok úplne neskončí. V tom popise je síce vzdialenosť a miesto, ale chýba detailná mapa trate. Hlavné lákadlo je, že je to úplne jednoduché: len jeden 5K beh v State College, v PSČ 16801, presne 31. decembra. A keďže tam na stránke nie sú žiadne recenzie od bežcov, tak to asi bude skôr taká menšia lokálna akcia, nie nejaké veľké preteky, kam by sa oplatilo cestovať zďaleka.
