La Toul an Dour is a trail-running event in Milizac-Guipronvel, Finistère, Brittany, usually held in early October. Runners can choose between trail distances around 8-10 km and 17-18 km, and there is also a nature walk for those who want the route without racing. The course access is notable: about 95% of the route uses paths opened only for the race. The organizers designed the event around the little-seen countryside of Guipronvel, with demanding trails rather than road running. The race has appeared on the official off-road calendar since 2009. Previous editions drew just over 100 participants, suggesting it is a local Breton trail day for runners and walkers rather than a large destination race.

La Leclerc Gouesnou - Brest Métropole is an October road-running event in Finistère, Brittany, featuring 5 km and 10 km races within the Brest urban area. The 10 km race is particularly notable, holding an FFA label, qualifying runners for the French championships, and utilizing a record-eligible course. The program also offers walking options and short children’s races, ensuring the day accommodates participants beyond competitive club runners. The course is urban, designed for straightforward road running. Children can choose from three distances: 500 m, 1 km, and 1.5 km. Walkers have a separate route. The event is filmed and broadcast live on TEBEO/TESUD, supports a charitable cause, and has a local feel, with one finisher humorously remarking it is “Better than a Paris-Brest.”

The Trail des Chapelles begins at the nautical center in Saint Efflam, near the bay at Plestin-les-Grèves. This trail-running event offers three primary distances: 25 km, 17 km, and 10 km. Approximately 95% of each route follows paths, with minimal road usage. The longer races present significant elevation changes, featuring 600 m of climbing for the 25 km and 400 m for the 17 km. The 10 km option includes 200 m of climbing and is generally less demanding, though it incorporates some technical sections. The 25 km course circles Plestin via country paths before descending into the Douron valley and reaching Toul An Hery. The 17 km route crosses similar terrain through the Dour Meur valley. Starting from Saint Efflam bay, the 10 km race heads towards Toul An Hery. Several courses conclude along the sentier des douaniers, the historic customs path, offering vistas over the Locquirec bay. The event also features two untimed "pink walks" (8 km and 11 km) supporting Octobre Rose breast cancer screening awareness, alongside a beach mini-trail for participants under 14. Strong turnout is common, even during harsh coastal conditions; one year saw 900 registered runners despite an icy wind at Saint Efflam beach.

Corrida de Landivisiau is a road race held in late October in Landivisiau, a town in Finistère, Brittany, situated between Landerneau and Morlaix. The schedule is concise and centered in the town: a 1.6 km race named Le Miles, alongside 5 km and 10 km road races, all timed and measured according to FFA standards. Starting from Place du Champ de Foire, the event is organized by Les Trotteriens Landi, with the mascot TROTTIX adding a local club atmosphere. The race is designed for everyday runners, teams, companies, and supporters, not exclusively elite athletes, offering prizes for the company or team with the most participants. It also includes a charitable component, generating support for a worthy cause while taking place in the center of Landivisiau.

The Saint-Pol Morlaix begins at the cathedral in Saint-Pol-de-Leon and finishes 22 km later at the viaduct in Morlaix, Finistere, Brittany. This November road race starts in the afternoon, with registration opening in spring. The main event exceeds a half marathon distance, yet organizers provide a timing mat at 21.1 km, allowing participants to record an official half-marathon split. The course features more climbing in the initial half, followed by a predominantly downhill section towards Morlaix. Saint-Pol Morlaix has been held annually since 1973, establishing it as Brittany's oldest race and one of France's long-standing road races; French runners frequently refer to it as LA course de Bretagne. The race weekend also incorporates children's races and a 10 km event, with fields sometimes reaching approximately 9,000 participants during periods of high entry numbers. Pierre-Ambroise Bosse, the French 800 m record holder, has previously acted as patron for the event.

The Semi-marathon de Plouguin is held on November 11, starting at the sports hall in Plouguin, a small commune in Finistère, Brittany. AS Plouguin organizes this annual event, featuring a 21.1 km half marathon, a 10 km race, a half marathon duo relay, and a walking option. The race has taken place every year since 1979. Recent editions have attracted just over 200 participants, unlike large city races. The course is described as a road race, but local details suggest more variation than a simple out-and-back. It follows paths through the Plouguin area, incorporating coastal sections and wooded stretches. The half marathon begins in the afternoon, and bib collection is available shortly before the start. The atmosphere is local and relaxed, intended for runners who wish to share the challenge and run at their own speed.

The route forms a loop starting and ending at the E. Leclerc shopping center in Landerneau, the origin of the Leclerc retail chain.

Plougastel Sports Nature organizes this event, which is open to runners aged 18 and over, regardless of club membership or license status. The format is intentionally relaxed, with no overall ranking or timing. The focus is on running together rather than competing for a specific result. The routes traverse Plougastel’s challenging paths through woods, heathland, and coastal areas, featuring 136 m of elevation gain for the 10 km course and 316 m for the 16 km course.

Plougastel Noz Trail is a night trail race held in Plougastel-Daoulas, on the Finistère coast of Brittany. Participants can select either a 10 km or 16 km distance. The 10 km race begins earlier in the evening, with the 16 km race commencing after dark. This event focuses on trail running along the coast at night, distinct from a road race. Both race distances feature single-loop courses that follow the coastline, with the sea nearby. The darkness alters the perception of the terrain underfoot. The 10 km course includes 136 m of elevation gain, and the 16 km course has 316 m of climbing. The longer distance offers a significant increase in challenge without becoming an ultra-marathon. This race is designed for trail runners seeking a Breton coastal run experience, incorporating headlamps, night air, and a concise selection of distances.
