fun run
If the events are footraces, I suggest "fun run." It's a very common name for races held in the US that accentuate participation and personal fitness, rather than elite competition. They are often held in conjunction with charitable fundraisers or community events, especially promoting health and fitness.
If there are other sports involved, perhaps "fun run and contests"
