Come run or walk a scenic 5k along Main Street starting at the football field through downtown Brownsville to support Breast Cancer Awareness in the month of October. This is a loop course with just a few hills but with a lot of fun! This is a timed event with t-shirts, finisher medals, and age group medals and awards.

Join us for the inaugural Miles for Milestones 5K & Fall Festival! Hosted by Milestones Therapy and Wellness and the Mother-Baby Nutrition Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, this event brings our community together to celebrate inclusion, movement, and every child's unique journey. Whether you're running for a personal record, walking with family, or cheering on participants, your registration directly supports children and families by helping fund MTW therapy scholarships, as well as other approved developmental and medical needs. Race day will include a timed 5K Run/Walk, a Kids' 100-Meter Dash/Run/Roll/Stroll, an inclusive Trick-or-Treat experience, and, of course, a costume contest! Are you an MTW Family or running it as an community supporter? Families who have completed an intensive through Milestones Therapy and Wellness are invited to create Family Teams. Friends, relatives, coworkers, and community members can join their team or make a donation to help them reach their fundraising goal. Funds raised by each Family Team are held by the Mother-Baby Nutrition Foundation and may be used for approved expenses such as therapy services, adaptive equipment, medical devices, and other qualifying developmental needs in accordance with Foundation policies. Community Supporters: Not part of an MTW Family Team? You can still make a lasting impact. Your registration, donations, and race proceeds help launch the MTW Scholarship Fund, providing therapy intensive scholarships for families who otherwise could not access care. Families we have not yet had the opportunity to serve will be able to apply for these scholarships beginning in 2027. Every dollar helps remove financial barriers and gives another child the opportunity to reach their next milestone.

NAATSISAAN TRAIL RACES Navajo Mountain, Utah Saturday October 31, 2026 START TIMES: Ultra @ 7:15 a.m. ||10-miler @ 10:00 a.m. || 5K @ 3:00 p.m. Yá'át'ééh runners! Welcome to the Naatsisaan Trail Races The Naatsisaan Trail Races at Navajo Mountain offer unique courses in one of the most beautiful spots on Dine’ Bikeyah. REGISTRATION – Online registration for the Naatsisaan 10-Miler, Naatsisaan Ultra, and the 5K will remain open online through their respective start time. COURSE & CHECKPOINTS– The 10-miler and 50K begin from Navajo Mountain High School and traverse challenging and stunning landscapes, including dirt roads, old doubletrack and trails. The route arcs around Lost Mesa, and includes dramatic views from the northeast side of the mountain. Runners will climb above Navajo Begay, along the 2006 fire site and in to Cha (Beaver) Canyon, where they will make the turn and head for the high school. 50k runners will then complete a second similar, but shorter loop. The non-competitive 5K trail race is a scenic and tough run on local dirt roads; there are overall and age-group swag awards for this event, and the event will include on course support. The 5K will also begin and end at Navajo Mountain H.S., taking runners on a scenic and challenging course. Aid stations for the 10-miler and 50k will include Honey Stinger energy gels, salty, sweet and high carb foods, medical support, communication and fluids. The course is marked with pin flags, cairns and some signage; however, runners should study the course map and try to become familiar with the route. The course is subject to revision, at the discretion of race organizers and/or local leaders. Alternative routes may be utilized in case of bad weather. RUNNER RESPONSIBILITIES: Runners will need to be prepared for extreme weather conditions and have the appropriate gear to accommodate such conditions. Appropriate rain gear and footwear are crucial. Hypothermia and heat issues can both pose a real threat in the high desert in the fall season, and runners must be prepared for the potential onset of such conditions. Aid stations will have generous supplies of fluids; however, runners should plan to bring their own hydration system. AFTERNOON CELEBRATION – There will be a community cook-out and live music from 2:00 til 5:00 p.m. at the high school. The 5K race/run begins at 3:00 p.m., and will be followed by a trunk-or-treating activity near the finish line! LODGING/CAMPING – The Navajo Mountain High School is offering rustic camping on the grounds of the school, just a short walk from the start and finish line. Camping includes access to restrooms and showers in the school. If you are looking for a motel for Friday or Saturday nights, the communities of Kayenta, Tuba City and Page, Arizona (each about two hours from the high school) have multiple lodging options. WEATHER – The weather in the Navajo Mountain area, including the surrounding canyons, can be very volatile. Runners should be prepared for rapid changes in conditions, including rainy conditions, wind, snow and cold. The mountain section of the route may be windy, cold and is more likely to experience snow/rain. Less likely, but still possible, are heat issues on this route, even in late October. Please be aware of your surroundings and be prepared for any extreme weather and trail conditions that may arise. AWARDS – Overall and age-group awards will be presented in the 50k and 10-miler events. All finishers will receive a finisher’s medal. The Naatsisaan Trail Ultra and the Navajo Parks Race Series are organized by the nonprofit organization NavajoYES in collaboration with Navajo Mountain High School. The event enjoys sponsorship and/or logistical support from Utah Navajo Health System, Naatsisaan Community School, and the Naatsisaan Chapter.

US Road Running Races US Road Running races are built for runners and walkers who like friendly, low-pressure race days with just enough competition to keep things exciting. Our events are local, welcoming, and easy to jump into, whether you are chasing a PR, collecting another themed medal, working toward series points, or just getting outside with good people. Most races are small enough to feel personal but organized enough to feel official. You can expect a clear course, helpful race staff, finisher medals, results, and a relaxed community feel. Bring your fast shoes, your steady walking pace, your favorite running buddy, or your best “I signed up for this on purpose” smile. We will be glad to see you at the start line. A quick race-day note: because many US Road Running events are small local races, we normally have one or two staff members at each race. EMS is not stationed on site, and water stations are limited to the finish area at the end of each lap and at the race finish. Please plan for the weather, bring anything you may want between laps, and check in with race staff if you need help. View Race Course, Results, and Race Information on the US Road Running race page.

We Run on Native Land We acknowledge that our running opportunities are built on the purposeful removal of Native peoples, who have been the stewards of Seattle-area lands for thousands of years. Thus, we accept our ethical responsibility for the ongoing stewardship of the land and purposeful support of Native neighbors, colleagues, businesses, and tribes. The Muckleshoot, Duwamish, Stillaguamish, Snoqualmie, and Coast Salish are the Natives of the lands we run on. Photo Consent I understand and accept that photos/videos/illustrations may be taken of me and/or my personal property while attending/participating in Seattle Running Club (SRC) events/functions. I acknowledge and agree that such photographs or other illustrations may be used by SRC and its related entities for advertising and promotional purposes in any medium, without compensation to me. If you would prefer not to have a particular photo used, let us know and we’ll do our best to remove it right away. A Greener Event: Cup Free Again, this year the series is continuing to reduce the amount of trash created during the event. We ask that runners bring a refillable water container with them on the trail to use at aid stations along the way and post-race. Our friends at Seven Hills Running, Fleet Feet Sports Seattle (Capitol Hill and Ballard), and Snoqualmie Running have a variety of hydration products. Race Information Thanks to runners like you, the Cougar Mountain Trail Run Series has raised over $250,000 for King County Parks and contributed hundreds of hours of trail work. Join Seattle Running Club and Northwest Trail Runs in carrying this legacy forward and making this 21st annual event bigger and better than ever! Just 15 minutes from Seattle, King County's Cougar Mountain Regional Wildland Park is one of the most popular training grounds for area trail runners and the Seattle Running Club. The course builds on itself throughout the series and brings runners through a lush forest of fern-lined single-track trails, over hills and along marshes and wetland habitats. This is a great series to supplement the training regime for a fall marathon or ultra. Cougar Mountain features rolling hills, a few moderate climbs, and a few steep but short inclines. The summer Short Series and Long Series races are held on the 2nd Saturday of May, June, July, and August. The Fall races are held on the last Sunday in October. Series standings are updated after each month's races and everyone competing in each successive distance is eligible for Series awards. There is a participant cap and the races tend to sell out, so register early! There are NO REFUNDS! Seattle Running Club Discount If you are a member of Seattle Running Club, you should have received a discount code for 20% in the newsletter. You will need to provide your member number if you use this discount code. There are also many other discounts and benefits for being a member of the Seattle Running Club. No Dogs As much as we love our four-legged friends and family members, we are not allowed to have dogs at our event. Very important announcement: Dogs are not allowed on the course due to USATF Sanctioning and Insurance Requirements. Despite the park's policy on dogs on leashes being acceptable, USATF has determined dogs on course cause a potentially unsafe environment for participants and spectators. We love our dogs and remember Scott's dog Jack attending Cougar races for years and years. But we want to continue hosting races for years to come and need to abide by the USATF rules. Awards The top 3 Men, Women, and Nonbinary Runners in each event will receive a podium prize. Our August 14.5-Mile Race will serve as the USATF PNTF championships. There will be prize money for this event. Prize money will be announced as we get closer to this event.

The Legend of the Course Welcome to the Philip Barbour Zombie 5k, an adrenaline-fueled race that has earned a terrifying reputation as one of the most challenging courses ever designed. This isn't your average, flat neighborhood fun run. If you want to survive, you’ll need speed, agility, and a relentless iron will. The Terrain The battleground is a brutal, heart-pumping mixture of rugged backcountry trails and unforgiving road segments. The Road: Just when you think you can find a steady rhythm on the pavement, the course throws steep, crushing elevation gains at you that will make your lungs burn and your calves scream. The Trails: Once you dive off the asphalt, you’ll find yourself navigating a chaotic labyrinth of twisting single-track dirt paths, exposed tree roots, loose gravel, and sudden drops. The constant shifting between the hard road and the unpredictable trails destroys your pacing, forcing your body to adapt every single mile. It is a true test of all-terrain endurance. The Twist As if the relentless hills and treacherous footing weren't enough... you are not alone. The woods are crawling. Hidden deep within the trail sections are packs of ravenous, flesh-eating zombies waiting to ambush you. Every runner will start with a flag belt representing their "life lines." Your mission is simple: navigate the punishing terrain, conquer the brutal climbs, and cross the finish line with at least one flag intact. Will you smash a new personal record on our legendary hills, or will you become part of the horde? Cost: $35 for the 5k run/ walk ($40 After 10/16) $28 for military and First Responders $15 for the fun run Awards: (5k only) top male and female runners top male and female race walkers Age group awards (top 2 male and female in each age group)

Join us on Saturday, October 31st at 9:00 A.M @ Monongah Park for a fun trail run along the West Fork River as we show off our Halloween spirit and support local juvenile justice. This race is hosted by the Marion County Teen Court, which has been active for over 20 years and continues to serve juveniles and their families by providing resources to divert them from the court system.

Every child deserves to come home to a parent who is present, hopeful, and equipped to build a better future. Unfortunately, incarceration often leaves behind more than a prison sentence. It leaves fractured families, emotional wounds, and children longing for stability. While many organizations focus on helping individuals find employment after incarceration, Prison to Purpose believes lasting transformation requires something deeper. We exist to help justice-involved individuals retrain their minds, realize their purpose, and become the fathers, mothers, sons, daughters, and neighbors their families and communities need them to be. Through our curriculum-based program, participants receive workforce readiness training, mentorship, emotional wellness support, parenting education, financial literacy, and life skills designed to foster lasting personal growth and family restoration. Our goal is simple but profound: to help break cycles of incarceration by strengthening the people and families most affected by it.

Let's do it! San Antonio’s ORIGINAL 0.5K!!! The Big Deal Join your fellow Slackers for a glorious day of triumph, self‑reflection, and a costume contest that absolutely no one asked for. Honestly, you can be done in fifteen to twenty minutes ("run" only), which is perfect for anyone who has a strict schedule of doing nothing. Welcome to the 6th Annual “I Can’t Bexar Another 5k” 0.5k on October 31st, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. sharp. Or close to it. We start at Burleson Yard Beer Garden and end at Alamo Beer, because we do. Remember to hydrate. This is a grueling event. We even have a training program if you request it. Really. It exists. We are as surprised as you are. We will finish at Alamo Beer, and that is when the celebration begins. You can take an unreasonable number of selfies at our selfie wall, post them all over social media, even TikTok, and brag to your friends that you are a FINISHER. If you even have any friends. Too lazy to show up? Perfect. We built an option just for you - the class of participants who look at a half‑kilometer stroll and say, “Absolutely not.” At registration, simply declare - proudly, loudly, maybe even with jazz hands - that you are a Certified Slacker. No judgment. No shame. Honestly, we respect the commitment to doing nothing. Once you’ve confessed your laziness, we’ll mail your swag straight to your door so you don’t have to burn a single calorie. As a Lazy Participant, you’ll still receive: The official race t‑shirt (which you will not sweat in)A pretentious sticker announcing your “achievement”And a luxurious leather medal that doubles as a coaster because nothing says “I conquered a brutal 0.5K” like placing your drink on proof you didn’t actually show up. Congratulations in advance on "finishing" the world’s most avoidable race. The Very Inactive Person (VIP) is designed specifically for those who take one look at 543 yards and say, “Listen… I’m important. My legs don’t do that.” If you believe you are far too distinguished, influential, or spiritually delicate to run (or walk), simply upgrade for a mere $15. That’s right - for the price of a fast‑food combo meal, you can ride to the finish line like royalty on the tailgate of a snappy Dodge 3500 Pearl White Dually. Because nothing says “athletic achievement” like arriving on a truck that could tow a small planet. You big spender, you. Only the finest transportation for someone of your stature. And as a VIP, you’ll also receive a special lanyard - a difference that loudly announces, “I did not participate, but I absolutely arrived.” It sets you apart from the common walkers and overachievers. Only the best for you. Goodies and Fun Stuff! If you want a stylish, lavish, highly sought-after t-shirt on race you must register prior to October 10th. If you miss the gate, some shirts will be available two-three weeks after registration, so you’ll need to pick them up then. We’ll let you know when your ship (shirt) comes in. This is why we really do it, anyway. The flashy oval 0.5k sticker shows your dedication to training and endurance for all to see. So, brag a little. Stick it right on your front windshield at eye-level so you can enjoy it too, along with the jealous glares of your fellow commuters as they meet you in the other lane. “Medals”. EVERYONE gets one, and it’ll be the coolest one you ever got. It doubles as a coaster, so when you entertain friends, you can passive-aggressively brag. We will continue to have a rejuvenation station, first aid (not really-if you need it, it’s on you), and the smoking area at the halfway mark. We decided to have this due to the difficulty level of the “race” for your own safety. There’s also the very competitive, popular vote individual and group costume contests with prizes. Dress up in anything fun or stupid. If you’re even considering this, you probably already have a costume in your secret closet. Post- “race” celebration and victory party is at Alamo Beer, where they’re opening early just for us, and because they recognize the importance of hydration and a free beer. Yay! It’s Alamo Beer’s SPOOKTOBERFEST celebration, and they’ll music. Only the best for you. You get your free beer at the finish. You may get only one free beer, but you can always buy more of Alamo Beer’s special SPOOKTOBERFEST beer, so please think about an Uber or DD. Seriously. Volunteers. Yeah, you. We need you. Simply sign up for it at the link that says “Volunteer”. You still get all the swag and can drive over the finish line. Only the best for you. Military are eligible for volunteer credit, and high schooler eligible for Community Service. We’ll provide all that’s required for the credit. Register before Oct 12th to guarantee the swag.

🎃 👻 Trick or Trot! 👻 🎃 Run in our annual Halloween Run, where healthy fitness meets frightful fun! We'll even give you some free Halloween candy after your run! Find a friend, set a goal, and join this unique 5K, 10K, or 13.1 Half-Marathon run! Forget the massive, impersonal race-day crowds. We keep things small, personal, and local, so every run feels less like a number and more like a memory. Whether it's a 5K, 10K, half-marathon, or virtual run, you'll get the warmth of a hometown event. Overview: Spots sell out FAST! We close each wave the moment it fills. Once a wave sells out, you can grab the virtual run option or join the waitlist. This is a smaller, private group run with a capped field per wave so it never feels crowded and you're never just a bib number. All paces and ages welcome (under 18 with a guardian) - run it, walk it, however you like! There's no gear, no setup, no fuss - just you, the course, and our coordinators cheering you on in a relaxed, stress-free setting. When you sign up, you're not just registering for a race - you're getting real support toward your fitness goals, plus an invite to join one of our local run clubs to keep the momentum going. Timing: Optional! Track your own time via Strava, RunKeeper, Nike Run, or similar, then submit it through our easy online form to get posted. Or just ask a coordinator to help time you. No timing chips - this is about progress, not pressure. What You Get (Swag Bag): - Running T-shirt (shipped to your address - U.S. only) - Finisher's medal - Virtual Training Run (emailed to you a month before your run) - Online results & certificate of completion - Invitation to join a local running club - NEW: Upgrade to a lightweight, moisture-wicking technical shirt for just $5 more Packet Pickup? Skip It. No lines, no hassle - your swag ships straight to your door. (Double check your full U.S. mailing address, including apartment number, when you register as your shirt is sent to this address!) Race bibs are simply handed out on race day. When Will My Swag Arrive? Your shirt will arrive at your mailing address the week of your race. Signing Up Last Minute? (Within 2 Weeks of the Race) No problem - just note that shipping may not catch up in time, so your shirt could arrive after race day. No worries, though: wear whatever you like and come run with us anyway! When Will I Receive the Course Map and Details? We'll send final participant info by the Wednesday before race day with all the details and course maps.
