TT: Favorite Fall Activities


Today’s Topic is: Favorite Fall Activities or Races

1.Where I live, fall is our big racing season… There are several scheduled every weekend.  So I guess racing is number 1 favorite fall thing to do.

Here are a few of my favorite races:

  • A local 5k and 10k.

It’s held in a park and is very scenic. Many runners dress up in costumes. There’s even a pumpkin decorating contest.

  • A local 5k

It’s a downhill course on the rail trail where I run often.  It’s only $10 and is followed by a festival.

  • A local 15k

It’s a very popular race since there aren’t many 15ks around.   The course is varied going through a park, cemetery and the oldest sections of the city. It also ends on a downhill.

  • Of course, a Thanksgiving Turkey Trot

There’s a 10k and a more popular 5k. It’s one of the oldest and largest. A great way to start off your holiday (and burn off calories.)

2.A close 2nd to racing would be eating…

Here are a few of my favorite fall eats:

  • Cider donuts

  • Pumpkin-flavored coffee

  • Pumpkin-favored ice cream

  • Homemade apple pie

  • Butternut Squash soup

3. Hiking – 

We are lucky to have so many nearby trails to experience the fall foliage:

Happy Running! What is your favorite fall activity or race(s)? Please share.

  1. Oh, I absolutely agree with your list, Darlene, and I even agree with the same order! Running, eating and then hiking in a forest with autumn foliage…. I mean, there’s nothing better, right?
    Ah no, wait, I would add a glass of wine on a cosy evening indoors!

  2. Well, I like fall foods! And I ate a pumpkin spice Gu on my run today 🙂

    I’m just happy our weather is cooling down enough so that I’m not dying on every run. I don’t have the ambitious race schedule that you do, but maybe i’ll do a Turkey Trot this year.

  3. The fall races sound like so much fun! And yes, apple pie definitely has to be part of the autumn.

    My favourite activity would be the camera walks and generally enjoying the autumn vibes, but this year obviously all that has been disrupted because of Elsa.

  6. All of those fall treats look delish! I’m all for pumpkin anything (well, except for an iced pumpkin spice latte… but the hot lattes are good!). Cider donuts are the best!!

    We had cider slushes with ice cream in them at the pumpkin patch recently. I highly recommend!!
