The Oakville Remembrance Trail Run is a fall event held in Oakville, Ontario, offering 5 km and 11 km routes along the 16 Mile Creek trails. The event coincides with Remembrance Day, bringing together runners and walkers focused on fitness, community, and supporting those who have served. All proceeds benefit Wounded Warriors Canada, specifically for mental health support for veterans, first responders, and their families. The run starts in Lions Valley. The shorter route provides an accessible option, while the 11 km route offers a more challenging run through the valley. The inaugural event attracted 200 participants and raised over $20,000. The addition of the 5 km distance now accommodates families, walkers, and less experienced trail runners. The event's purpose is to gather in Oakville to honor Canadian veterans, support first responders, and raise awareness for the mental health challenges these groups face.

The Doughnut Dash is an annual 5 km road race held at Macassa Bay Yacht Club on Harbour Front Drive in Hamilton, Ontario. A kids race begins just before the main event. This late-season run takes place before Christmas, with the 5 km starting at 10:00 a.m. Eastern, following the kids race at 9:55 a.m. The field typically draws over 310 runners, giving it the feel of a community race rather than a small fun run. Chip timing is utilized, and all participants in both races receive a finisher medal. The 5 km course loops through Bayfront Park before heading out and back for approximately a mile on the waterfront trail, turning at the first island. It is a flat, accurately measured course, though its certification has expired. Spectators can watch runners at the start, around 1,300 metres, and again at the finish. Grandad's Doughnuts sponsors the event, supplying doughnuts for all participants and offering small samples of different flavours; these samples are not nut-free. Awards are presented to the top three overall finishers for men and women, and to the top three in five-year age groups from 19-and-under to 70-plus. The race also features draw prizes and supports local youth.

The course follows a waterfront road, emphasizing a shared cause and an accessible distance over a technical racing challenge. It is noted as the only national run for pancreatic cancer, lending the Burlington event a broader significance. Participants receive race bibs, branded medals, finisher items, glow-in-the-dark swag, snacks, and drinks. Race kit pickup is available the day before the event.

Niagara PAL Santa Dash 5k is a holiday-themed 5K in Niagara Falls, with the route running around the falls before finishing in downtown Niagara Falls. It is built as a community race, with a low entry fee, a student rate, and proceeds supporting local youth. The draw is simple: runners get a short race near one of the best-known natural landmarks in North America, then end in the middle of downtown holiday activity. Early registrants are guaranteed a race T-shirt, and the post-race setup includes family-friendly seasonal activities rather than just a finish line and a walk back to the car.
