In Mexico, community-focused activities include a 'plogging' run in Chapultepec Forest to collect waste and a charity race to support the rehabilitation of the botanical garden's orchidarium. Additionally, the Run & Climb event in Coyoacán combines running with rock climbing.

In Chile, Carozzi's Agrozzi division hosted a family sports day in Teno, while the Universidad de O’Higgins is organizing its traditional Corrida UOH in Rancagua. In Costa Rica, the Toucan Rescue Ranch is hosting a charity run in Heredia to fund wildlife rescue and rehabilitation efforts.

Technological advancements also support these activities, with Xiaomi offering a range of wearables, including smartwatches and audio glasses, designed to monitor performance and enhance safety for runners and athletes.
