The Trail De La Rivière D'etel - Nostang is a trail running event held in Nostang, Brittany, connected to the ria d’Etel trail series. Over 1,200 participants compete on four courses, including a 6 km option and a 25 km route that passes through the village of Saint-Symphorien, where a refreshment stop is located. Bibs are known to sell out before race day. The local organizer, Chemins d’antan, utilizes approximately 150 volunteers for managing parking, bib collection, cloakrooms, aid stations, and the finish area. The event maintains a strong local character. The mayor traditionally starts the races using a bell. Regional race photographer Philippe Josse captures numerous images, and some participants are familiar with sections of the course from hiking events. At the finish line, volunteers Odile and Guy offer 160 liters of pumpkin and ginger soup, prepared since early morning. The participants include competitive runners, young athletes, hikers, club members, and regular participants in nature sports, with spectators lining the course to offer encouragement.

Foulées Hivernales de la Laïta is a 10 km road race held in Guidel, located in France’s Morbihan department. The race begins at 10 AM and is organized by Les Joggers de la Laïta, the local running club that established the series. The race offers a straightforward format: a single road distance, a morning start time, and organization by a local club instead of a large festival setup. Interested runners can find details by contacting Erwan Le Nadant, emailing [email protected], or visiting the Les Joggers de la Laïta Facebook page.

The Corrida de Noël - Cléguérec is a December road running event held in Cléguérec, a town in Morbihan, Brittany. The primary adult race is approximately 8 km, with 5 km and 10 km options also available for adults, suggesting a multi-distance running event rather than a single-distance race. It is organized by the Cléguérec town hall, and the 8 km race begins in the early evening. The race takes place in central Cléguérec, featuring a short road course suitable for local participants and visitors seeking a run during the Christmas season. The schedule includes children's races and a laser biathlon tournament preceding the running events. A notable local aspect is the participation of residents from the Foyer de vie in the 5 km race, each accompanied by a staff member. The event also provides live GPS tracking and a fan zone via an app, allowing spectators to monitor runners in real time.

Run à l'Orient begins next to the former submarine base at La Base in Lorient, a port city in Morbihan on France's Brittany coast. This early-March road race takes place by the sea, featuring city courses for adults and separate races for children and juniors. The primary distances offered are 5 km, 10 km, and a longer option described as either a half marathon or a 20 km urban trail, catering to both newer runners seeking a short goal and experienced runners wanting a more challenging course. The event is structured with several start waves: children run first, followed closely by the 10 km, 20 km, and 5 km races. The 10 km is a single loop, while the 5 km and 20 km formats offer relay options, making the event suitable for both teams and individual participants. The location is a key attraction: runners begin in Lorient's submarine-base area and follow a coastal city route, distinct from rural trails or stadium circuits. Bib collection is available on-site; organizers encourage participants to pick up their bibs on Saturday to avoid potentially longer waits on Sunday.

Foulées Pluvignoises is a road race held in late January or early February in Pluvigner, a town in Morbihan, Brittany. The primary event is a 10 km race for adults, typically attracting around 400 participants, with overall numbers often ranging from 400 to 500. The schedule also features youth races, with distances from 200 metres to 3 km based on age, drawing approximately 200 young runners. It is open to various categories, from beginners to veterans, for both women and men. Adults can participate whether they are licensed runners or not, provided they submit the necessary medical documentation. The 10 km course winds through the streets and local paths of Pluvigner and is included in the Challenge Douar Alré Sobhi Sport. The event is organized by the Les Foulées Pluvignoises association, established in 1989 to encourage sport and running, and is managed by a small team of volunteers. The club also operates a leisure running group, with several dozen members who compete in races throughout Morbihan, Brittany, and other parts of France; some consistently achieve good results in departmental races and on Challenge Douar Alré podiums. Awards are given to the fastest runners, and a participant lottery distributes prizes to a wider range of competitors. The association also contributes to the upkeep of local paths and small heritage sites, connecting the race to the town beyond the event itself.

Entre Landes et Océan is a trail race in Quiberon, on the Morbihan coast of Brittany in France, with 10 km and 20 km options. It is usually scheduled for mid-March, and the 20 km is the main attraction. Both races are one-loop trail runs, featuring seaside sections and natural terrain rather than a road-race atmosphere. The course is described as technical, so runners should anticipate more than a flat jog by the water. The name translates to “Between Heathland and Ocean,” and the race emphasizes its coastal setting; one recent edition encountered strong winds along the Quiberon coast. Fields are small, with a previous edition attracting just over 100 runners, but the front of the 20 km can still be competitive: Laura Le Helloco, from Courir a Saint-Ave and originally from Saint-Malo, led one recent race from the start and won by more than four minutes ahead of Juliette Pouedras.

The Trail du Kreiz Breizh (TKB) is a trail running series in central Brittany, with races centered around Pontivy and Saint-Nicolas-les-Eaux. The event provides multiple off-road distances: 64 km, 28 km, 18 km, and 10 km. A 42 km trail is also scheduled for March. It is designed for runners seeking forest paths, Breton culture, and options ranging from a short trail to a longer endurance challenge. The 64 km course connects Pontivy and Saint-Nicolas-les-Eaux. Other race details indicate starts and finishes in Pontivy, with shuttle services from Pontivy to Saint-Nicolas-les-Eaux. Participants will pass local sites like Quelven cathedral and the Saint Nicolas chapel, before crossing wooded paths above the town and the Blavet valley. The race's motto is “Landscape, Heritage, Trails,” and organizers note a 99% recommendation rate from early editions.

La Mouss'terlinoise is a Sunday race held in Mousterlin, within the Fouesnant area of Brittany. It is centered on the local school, not a major race brand. The primary event covers 10.1 km, with separate starts for middle schoolers, adults, and children throughout the morning. The Parents' Association of the Mousterlin school organizes the race. Entry fees support school projects, including cultural trips, sports outings, and nature discovery activities. The event saw strong local participation, with 930 runners registered for the 10.1 km race. Morgan L’Helguen won the men's race by 24 seconds under clear skies and spring-like weather.

The top event in the Trail du Kreiz Breizh program is a 64 km option with approximately 2,000 meters of elevation gain. The series is based in Pontivy, central Brittany, and features trail races ranging from a 10 km distance to longer mountain-style courses, including 18 km and 28 km routes. The courses connect Pontivy with Saint Nicolas les Eaux and the Blavet valley. They utilize forest paths above the town and riverside sections along the Blavet's bends. Runners will encounter local heritage sites like Quelven cathedral and the chapel of St Gildas, as well as villages such as Bieuzy les Eaux and Saint Nicolas les Eaux. One race format begins at the port of Saint Nicolas, with a shuttle from Pontivy, and proceeds back toward Pontivy.
