Pumpkin Glow Run - Fenton, MI

Pumpkin Glow Run - Fenton, MI is held in Fenton, Michigan, on October 30, 2026, with two starts. The Kids Fun Run goes first at 5:45 p.m. over a short distance suited to young runners, and the 5K Run/Walk follows at 6:15 p.m. over 3.1 miles, open to runners and walkers alike.

Stacking a children's race ahead of the 5K makes this straightforward to do as a family: the younger ones finish before the main start, and adults race afterward. For the 5K itself, nothing elaborate is required, a month of running three or four times a week gets most people to the line ready. October evenings in Michigan get cold quickly once you stop moving, so pack a jacket and dry layer for after the finish.
