5K: A 5 kilometer (3.1 mile) race, often considered the shortest "serious" race distance.
-
10K: A 10 kilometer (6.2 mile) race, a popular distance for runners of all abilities.

-
Marathon: A 42.2 kilometer (26.2 mile) race, considered the ultimate test of endurance and stamina.
Participating in a running event requires proper training and preparation. It is highly recommended to consult a doctor before starting any training program, especially if you have a pre-existing medical condition or have not exercised in a while. It is also important to have the appropriate gear, such as running shoes, and to stay hydrated and fueled during the race.
Many running events also serve as fundraisers for charitable organizations, giving participants the opportunity to contribute to a good cause while also challenging themselves physically.
