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.”

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 Semi-marathon de Plouguin is held on November 11, starting at the sports hall in Plouguin, a small commune in Finistère, Brittany.

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 Landerneau Urban Trail is an urban trail race held in November in Landerneau, a town in Finistère, Brittany, western France. It provides two distances, 10 km and 18 km, positioning it between a short city run and a longer trail effort. The race began in 2019 and attracts hundreds of participants. The route forms a loop starting and ending at the E. Leclerc shopping center in Landerneau, the origin of the Leclerc retail chain. While organizers withhold the precise course details, the race focuses on urban trail running within Landerneau, incorporating natural areas and notable local landmarks. It is designed for trail runners seeking a communal, end-of-season event with an element of surprise.

Noz Trail Plougastel is a night trail race held in Plougastel-Daoulas, Finistère, offering two distances: 10 km and 16 km. 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.

The Trail de la Vallée des Moulins is a Sunday trail-running event in Lanhouarneau, with about 1,400 participants across several formats. Runners can select a 10 km solo race, a 10 km duo, or a 20 km trail, and walkers have a 10 km option. This event is in its twelfth edition, establishing it as a regular fixture for local runners. The route begins with a quick pace on undulating terrain, then becomes challenging early on: Marina Crenn, the first woman over 10 km, noted it started to hurt around the fourth kilometer. The longer race combines sections that can be run with steep, difficult climbs, enough to test experienced runners; Luca Desmares, a past 20 km winner, took third place after Yann Botrel broke away halfway. Yann Botrel won the men's 20 km, Célia Lareur won the women's 20 km, and Sébastien Bergot, who often serves as the race announcer, exchanged the microphone for a spot in the 10 km duo.

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.

Le Défi de Kervallon is a road race in Brest, held in the Cavale Blanche neighborhood and organized by the Brest Goélopieurs association.

Free children's races, with distances determined by age group, take place before the adult events. The race also benefits the SNSM Brest intervention and training center, adding a charitable aspect to the competition. The adult course is a 5 km loop, run once for the 5 km race and twice for the 10 km race. This loop combines streets with natural areas around Cavale Blanche, and it is notably hilly, featuring a 1 km climb, numerous descents, and approximately 70 m of elevation gain per lap. The 10 km includes a separate climb competition with a podium for top climbers, and the Grand Défi classification recognizes individuals competing in both the 5 km and 10 km races. Music is provided along the course to support runners during challenging sections. Previous editions have attracted competitive club runners and local participants seeking a demanding, hilly race in Brest.

The Corrida de Plouarzel is a Christmas-season running event held in Plouarzel, Finistère, at the Pointe de Corsen on France's western mainland edge. It features two races, 5 km and 10 km, suitable for both novice runners and seasoned club athletes. The event has a local, year-end character, prioritizing collective participation over a formal, urban style. The courses are swift but demanding, involving consistent ascents, descents, and abrupt accelerations that test runners' endurance. A unique aspect is the route's passage through the sports hall, enhancing the atmosphere with crowd noise and immediate encouragement. The competition can be fierce, with past winners including Stade Brestois athletes Laëtitia Bleunven and Benoît Campion. The event attracts both competitive runners aiming for fast times and local participants enjoying the festive mood.

Les Foulées douarnenistes begins at the Jules Verne hall in Douarnenez, a port town in Finistère on the Brittany coast.

The race is organized by Les Semelles douarnenistes, and its extensive history, including a 40th edition, establishes it as a fixture in the town’s running schedule.
