Recurring 10K races near Leiden

Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

AV Spirit Wintercup

The AV Spirit Wintercup is a winter running and walking series in Lelystad, Flevoland, with a race on the first Sunday of each month from October through March. It is AV Spirit's primary recreational running event in the city, offering sportier runners proper distances to compete. The program typically includes an 800 m KidsRun, a youth or short course of about 2 km, 5 km and 10 km runs, and a 5 km walk. All races start and finish on the AV Spirit athletics track, with routes extending into a wooded area near Lelystad. The field is intentionally broad, welcoming children, adults, AV Spirit members, non-members, first-timers, walkers, club runners, and experienced runners. Entry fees are kept low, late registration is permitted, and the event is capped at approximately 500 participants. A Business Run is also included, allowing local teams to participate alongside individual runners and walkers.

Rondje Bergen is a running event in Bergen, North Holland, taking place on the first Sunday of October. It features short youth races of 1 and 2 kilometers, alongside 5K, 10K, and a 10 English mile option (16.1 kilometers), providing suitable distances for children, first-timers, club runners, and more serious participants. The route begins within the village: youth races are confined to the center, while longer distances traverse Bergen’s center, the Bergerbos, and the North Holland dune area. The event incorporates Bergen’s character as an artist village, establishing it as a relaxed gathering spot for runners and spectators, with old woods, wide lanes, dunes, and village streets combined within this local race day.

Langs de Gouweloop Waddinxveen

Langs de Gouweloop is a local road race in Waddinxveen, organized by Sportclub Antilope. The start and finish are on Gouweplein at the town’s shopping center. The program includes a 1.3 km kids run, and 5 km and 10 km performance runs for older participants. From Gouweplein, the route goes past the train station between Coenecoop and the Triangel district. A large part of the race takes place in Triangel before returning to the shopping center. The event has passed fifty editions, making it a long-running fixture.

Harbour Run Rotterdam

Harbour Run Rotterdam guides participants through the working port of Rotterdam, featuring obstacles such as climbing over large containers. This annual obstacle run in Rotterdam, Zuid-Holland, Netherlands, typically takes place in October, offering 6 km and 10 km distances instead of a conventional road-race format. The course navigates Rotterdam's port areas, presenting an industrial landscape rather than parkland or city streets. SportVibes organizes the event, collaborating with obstacle, course, and business partners, as well as the Port of Rotterdam, with their partnership extending to 2028. Companies can register business teams for colleagues to compete together, and the event also benefits Ronald McDonald Huis Sophia Rotterdam.

Jan Louter Loop

The Janlouterloop begins at AV Fortuna on Watersportweg in Vlaardingen, leading runners into the Vlaardingse Broekpolder during autumn. Organized by AV Fortuna and affiliated with the Atletiekunie, the race offers 5, 10, or 15 kilometer distances. Starts are scheduled in late-morning waves, with entry fees varying by distance. The race commemorates Jan Louter, a former AV Fortuna trainer and dedicated runner who passed away from pancreatic cancer. He coached multiple running groups at the club, logged extensive mileage, and was known for his motivating enthusiasm. Net proceeds benefit Support Casper, a program of the Dutch Foundation Survive Pancreatic Cancer.

Oosterhoutse Trail

The Oosterhoutse Trail is a trail race in Oosterhout, offering 10 km, 18 km, and 26 km distances. It takes place on a Saturday in October. The start times are staggered, with the 26 km race beginning first, followed by the 18 km, and then the 10 km. The event marks its 10th edition, making this running an anniversary one. Organizers describe the course as challenging and varied. More route details are expected, and information from the previous edition's route is provided for context.

Dordtse Biesbosch Trailrun

The Dordtse Biesbosch Trailrun begins and ends at the organizer's grounds on Schenkeldijk in Dordrecht, South Holland. This trail race crosses the Nieuwe Dordtse Biesbosch, offering distance options from short Family Runs to a half marathon. Participants can select 3 km or 5 km Family Run courses, a standard 5 km, 10 km, 10 English Miles, or a 21.1 km half marathon, catering to children, novice runners, and those seeking a longer off-road challenge. The courses feature narrow paved paths, unpaved tracks, sandy stretches, and dikes, leading through the Nieuwe Dordtse Biesbosch, the floodplains beside the Nieuwe Merwede, and the Elzenbos. The trail surface may present puddles, streams, branches, and tree trunks, making the race a test of adaptability to varied terrain rather than a pursuit of speed on a smooth road. The start-finish area provides baggage drop-off and changing facilities. The event maintains a relaxed outdoor atmosphere with campfires, marshmallow roasting for children post-race, and refreshments including coffee, tea, soft drinks, satay, and beer.

Vestingloop Edam

Vestingloop Edam sends runners over the old fortifications of Edam, in North Holland, with the finish on the Baandervesting near the chain bridge. It is an October road race with four options: 1 km and 2.6 km youth runs, a 3-mile recreational run, and a 10 km race that has both competitive and recreational fields. The event is organised by AV Edam, is affiliated with the Atletiekunie, and caps entries at 1,000 runners. The route over the Vesting is the part that has stayed constant since the first edition in 1954, even though the distances have changed from the original 5 km. The youth races start at the Baandervesting, while the 3-mile and 10 km runners start on the Noordervesting; the 10 km is almost four laps. Timing is handled by bib chips for the 3-mile and 10 km races and shoe chips for the youth races, with medals for the first three boys and girls and cash prizes in several 10 km age categories.

The Maliebaanloop is a running event in Utrecht, held on the third Sunday of October on and around the Maliebaan. Organizers refer to the Maliebaan as the most beautiful running track in the Netherlands. It accommodates a wide range of participants, offering short youth races for children, 5 km and 10 km runs for individuals aged 14 and older, and separate 5 km and 10 km NSK races for students. The youngest participants, aged 4 to 9, compete in a 1 km race. Those aged 10 to 13 have a 2.5 km youth race. Adults and older teenagers can opt for the 5 km or 10 km performance run individually, form teams of 4, 5, or 6 runners, or register for relay events. The event also features children's activities, a registration area, and live music, contributing to its atmosphere as a local community race rather than a large city marathon.

Zeezichtloop Petten

Zeezichtloop Petten is an October race day in Petten, Noord-Holland, with 5 km and 10 km runs, walking, and a free kids run. The event was formerly called the Kermisloop, and the renamed version carries on a local tradition that is more than 50 years old. The route starts in the village, follows the dike with views of the North Sea, goes through dunes and forest, and returns to Petten. Runners get timed results, the 5 km and 10 km races count toward the club competition, and early entries can have the runner’s first name printed on the bib.

14e GOUDasfaltloop incl. KidsRun & Pacer

The GOUDasfaltloop is a small running event in Gouda with a cap of 150 participants and distances from 240 meters up to 10 km. It includes short youth races under the KidsRun banner, plus 5 km and 10 km options for adults or older runners, and the Pacer element gives runners a way to aim for a steadier target pace. Entry fees are low, from €5 to €13, and late registration is allowed when places are still available. The route goes through the Veerstalblok polder and over the Tiendwegen, with the start, passing points, and finish tied to the GOUDasfalt event grounds. That setup keeps the race compact: runners head out into open polder roads and return to the same event site. Earlier editions also included a photo contest and small surprise elements, so the day is pitched more as a local community race than a large city run.

Zorg en Zekerheid Circuit

The Zorg en Zekerheid Circuit is a paved road running series held in Leiden, South Holland. Participants can register for the entire circuit rather than individual race days, with 5 km, 10 km, and 15 km distances available. The process is simple: circuit participants collect their bibs at the information desk on race day, where same-day registration is also managed. The entry form lists short, middle, and long distance categories, along with a short-distance option for ages 12-18. Runners aged 15 and under require parental or guardian consent.

About 10K races in Leiden

Leiden Base Miles

Leiden hosts 91 10K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals run the singels, the Oude Rijn edges, and the tight city centre when they want quick intervals without leaving town. Leiden Run Club starts free social runs every Sunday at 10:30 AM from De Morspoort, with coffee after. Stichting We Run The City keeps the training steady in Leiden. The city centre gives you bridges, stones, corners, and that proper zweet op de kop feeling. The race calendar offers 195 km total. 100 Bruggenloop, Singelloop Leiden, Glibbertreel Leiden, Zorg en Zekerheid Circuit, and Leidse Houtloop keep the calendar honest.

Locals ride out fast because pedal power just works here. Swift-Leiden is the straight club option, and Raas rolls social rides every Thursday around 19:00h. Keytown cruisers gives the group-ride fix when solo Z2 starts getting boring. The Dune & Sea Route gives 33 km through Leiden, Wassenaar, and Katwijk, with North Sea air only 8 km from town. The Dune Region gives the nearest climbs, and the dunes reach 25 metres when you want something more than flat base miles. The Mills & More Route passes 20 windmills over 34.8 km. The Trekvaart route works the waterways of Leiden and Oegstgeest. The Limes Matilo route gives 15 km through Archeologisch Park Matilo.

South Holland works best in April-June and September-October, when legs come around and the calendar feels full. Spring gives 12-20°C days, and late April brings the Bollenstreek peak between Haarlem and Leiden. Leiden summer is long enough for evening intervals, easy spins to Katwijk, and heat-aware runs where locals watch heart rate and carry a water-and-salt plan. Early autumn gives 20-22°C days, which is perfect for gran fondo pace without drama. Winter changes the rhythm for both sports. The Netherlands often sits at 0-8°C in winter, and December can shrink daylight to 7-8 hours, so locals keep it short, steady, and close to home.
