Fun runs on tap

A pair of Halloween-themed fun runs are coming up in Coeur d'Alene.

Fleet Feet's Halloween Fun Run and Costume Contest is set for Thursday, Oct. 28, starting at 5:45 p.m. at Fleet Feet.

It begins with a costume contest, then heads out for an informal group run of about three miles, with a few trick-or-treat stops set up along the way.

"We'll tell you where the treats are, you decide how far you want to run to get them," a press release said.

Bring your costume, running shoes and something to hold your goodies.

Fleet Feet is at 511 Sherman Ave.

Information: 765-7604

The first Pumpkin 5K Fun Run & Food Drive is 11 a.m. Oct. 30 at 2293 W Hanley Ave, Coeur d'Alene, 83815. Parking will be in the lot of the Church Of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

The fun run is free. There will be aid stations with water and Halloween candy along the course that goes to the Time Warner building and back. There will be awards for best costumes.

Those planning to run or walk are asked to bring food for the Community Action Partnership Food Bank for Thanksgiving.
