The start and finish are located at the SV Grasheide football club on Galeistraat. The half marathon consists of three laps of 7.033 km each. Approximately half of the course is unpaved, combining quiet paved roads with field and forest paths. The route is closed to traffic, with marshals and kilometer markers provided. Water stations are available on each lap, along with a supply point at 3.5 km. Geshaalopers organize the event, making it accessible for local runners and relay teams, and supporting a different charitable cause annually.

EnergyVision Dwars Door Hasselt is a city running event held in Hasselt, Limburg, offering race distances from a 1 km kids run to a 21.0975 km half marathon. It is known locally as Limburg’s coziest city run, yet it is also a significant event, with almost 14,000 runners participating in a recent edition, ranking it as the third largest running event in Flanders. The event features 3 km, 5 km, 10 km, 15 km, the half marathon, the Persil Kids Run, and a handbike race. The half marathon is officially measured and World Athletics-certified, attracting approximately 3,000 runners since its introduction. The children’s run is untimed, while the 3 km through half marathon races utilize chips to record net time from start to finish. Participants receive a commemorative medal, aid stations along the route and at the finish, changing rooms and showers at PXL, bag storage, and results published online and via Het Belang van Limburg’s digital newspaper.

Trage Wegen Jogging is a running event held in October in Boutersem, located in Belgium’s Vlaams-Brabant province, starting at Sport’O’Droom. Participants can choose from 5 km, 10 km, 16 km, and 21 km distances. Time registration uses chips, and the event features a free-start format divided into two blocks. The course consists almost entirely of unpaved paths, featuring numerous single-track sections, making it more of a trail run than a road race. The route is marked, and aid stations are available along the way. Sport’O’Droom offers amenities such as changing rooms, showers, and luggage storage. Additionally, there are 400 m and 800 m kids' runs. Every child participating receives a medal. This marks the 12th edition of the race.

Donkmeerloop De Mooiste Halve is a road race held at Festival Hall Donkmeer in Berlare, East Flanders. The start and finish are on Donklaan, adjacent to the lake. The race offers 6 km, 12 km, and half marathon distances, and is scheduled for autumn. Jente Samson, the Flanders Project Team, the municipality of Berlare, and the Province of East Flanders organize the event. It has been held for 11 consecutive editions, expanding from 450 participants in its first year to over 2,000, with fields now sold out. The courses traverse the Donkmeer area, the old duck decoy, and Nieuwdonk. This ensures even the shorter distances offer the same lake-and-park environment as the half marathon. Half marathon participants can utilize seven pacers, identifiable by orange shirts, aiming for finish times between 1:20 and 2:10. Past editions featured the Belgian Championship, charity runs, and support for a children's heart fund. The race maintains practical amenities: aid stations on each lap, electronic timing, changing facilities and showers at the start/finish, medals for all finishers, a finisher drink, and trophies awarded.

20km door het Zoniënwoud is a 20 km forest race in Auderghem, on the edge of Brussels. It is a trail run, with over 90% of the route unpaved. The course is fully marked, and runners receive one aid station. The race carries a UTMB Index 20K listing and features 370 meters of climbing, suitable for those seeking a short, genuine off-road challenge. The route remains primarily within the Zoniënwoud, utilizing gravel paths and single tracks with some steep ascents. It is entirely traffic-free, marked by orange arrows and large signs, and limited to 1,500 participants across four start waves. The event includes a walking option for children up to 12 and dogs, offered free of charge, contributing to a wider local atmosphere compared to a race exclusively for runners.
