Cap en rose is a Pink October solidarity walk and run in Capbreton, on the Landes coast of southwest France. It begins at the Halles, the covered market on Allées Marines, sending a wave of pink through the town streets. The event supports women affected by breast cancer, with proceeds going to Hope Team East, a local association that uses sport to help improve the health of people living with cancer. This is not a timed race; participation is emphasized over pace. Entrants can choose a 10 km run, a 5 km walk or run, or the free 1 km Péchounets race for children. The city of Capbreton organizes it with Hope Team East, and the field is deliberately broad: families, walkers, runners, first-timers, and supporters all share the same start area. Registration is handled before race day, with online sign-up and a final in-person window the day before.

Hendaye en rose is a Pink October sports and solidarity program in Hendaye, featuring a 5 km walk and a 6 km run. It takes place during October, the breast-cancer awareness month. Hendaye Commerce and local shopkeepers organize the town’s campaign, allowing participation on foot rather than solely offering support from afar. The program also includes conferences, longe cote, and Nordic walking, extending beyond a single start line. Hendaye Commerce and Cherie FM have supported the breast-cancer campaign for several years, involving local associations, residents, and businesses. Funds raised are donated to research, providing the event with a clear purpose beyond the run and walk.

The Marche nordique du Pignada is a timed Nordic walking event held in Anglet. It begins at 10 AM from the Orak Bat stadium. The event is organized by the Nordic walking section of Aviron Bayonnais Athlétisme. Participants can choose between a 6.5 km course or a forest route of approximately 11.5 to 12.5 km. The routes traverse the Pignada forest. The shorter course consists of a single loop, while the longer timed course involves two loops within the woods. This is the event's fourth edition. It maintains a club atmosphere, with each participant receiving a souvenir gift. Following the walk, attendees are invited to a potluck, where participants contribute a dish or drink to share.

The 15 km Donostia - San Sebastián is a road race held in late October in San Sebastián, a Basque coastal city also known as Donostia. The primary event is the 15K, with a 5K offered for those seeking a shorter distance. It accommodates a wide range of participants: individuals aiming for a fast time, runners preparing for longer races, novices, wheelchair athletes, and handbikers are all included. Over 5,000 people start annually, giving it the atmosphere of a city-wide event rather than a small local run. The 15K course begins on Avenida de Madrid and concludes on Paseo de Anoeta. It is entirely within the city, is at sea level, and is closed to traffic, contributing to its reputation as a personal-best course for many. The route passes La Concha promenade, City Hall, the boulevard, Zurriola beach, wide central streets, and narrower old-town lanes. The race also fosters a strong community spirit: a skating club travels from Barañain each year, past champions discuss winning multiple txapelas, and finish-line stories often feature international visitors meeting the time limit and long-time friends still competing together after many years.

Runners begin at the stadium's base and conclude inside it for the 15 km Salto Donostia - San Sebastian, a road race held in October in San Sebastian, Spain. The primary race is 15 km at 10:00, preceded by a 5 km run at 09:30 and a distinct 15 km rollers and handbike competition. The 15 km event draws a substantial field, with the latest recorded results showing 3,892 participants for that distance. The course is designed for speed, described by the organizer as an ultra-fast layout, yet it still offers participants a comprehensive view of Donostia. It proceeds north from the stadium, traces the Urumea river, crosses historic bridges, goes through the city center, and then runs alongside La Concha Bay before incorporating a short, elevated loop for added challenge. The ambiance is distinctly Basque and local, featuring music and hand claps along the route, and the stadium finish provides a defined endpoint, unlike a less distinct seafront conclusion.

The 15 km Donostia - San Sebastián is a road race held in San Sebastián, on Spain’s Basque coast, typically in late October. The primary event is La Clásica Salto 15K DSS, accompanied by a 5 km race on the same day for those seeking a shorter distance. This city-and-coast race welcomes handisport participants and is eligible for record-setting. The 15 km route consists of one full circuit through San Sebastián, and the 5 km also follows a single-loop format. The prior edition attracted over 3,000 participants, indicating it is a busy city race rather than a small local run. Finishers ranks the 15 km as the most renowned race in its category, and the event is part of a broader Basque Country race circuit featuring several other San Sebastián events.

The 10 km route offers a swift tour of the city, covering Grand Bayonne, Petit Bayonne, Lauga, Saint-Esprit, and Saint-Léon, with the Nive and Adour rivers visible.

Trail de la Bixintxo is an urban trail in Ciboure, set during the local Bixintxo festivities. It is organized by the parent-teacher associations of Ciboure schools, with support from the City. The program includes events for various age groups, not just adults: a 10 km race for adults, a 3 km race for teens, a free children's race for ages 5-10, and a 6.5 km walk. The route runs through the town, making the adult race a short urban trail rather than a mountain course.

The event raises funds for the Zurekin association and the school parent-teacher associations, fostering a strong community connection around Ciboure's schools and families.

It follows an out-and-back path along the ocean. On clear days, participants are treated to expansive views of the seafront. However, the route presents challenges, notably the VVF hill. Ikastola children and parents are known to encourage runners during this demanding section.

Les 10 miles des baïnes is a 10-mile running race in Capbreton, on the Côte d'Argent in the Landes department of Nouvelle-Aquitaine.

The route moves between the Atlantic shore, the port, and a lake, offering runners several facets of Capbreton within a single race. The event is described by its organizers as established and popular, drawing a near-full field of participants. The name refers to the baïnes, the coastal sandbank channels found along this stretch of southwest France.

The Trail du pays d'Orthe is a spring trail-running series held in Peyrehorade, Landes, southwest France. It features three distances: a 10 km trail, a 15 km route, and a 26 km route. Franck Fariscot and Alexandre Chourré, local runners and members of the Peyrehorade parents' association, APE, established the event. The 15 km and 26 km routes are primarily off-road, with over 90% on paths and trails instead of pavement.

Following the 15 km and 26 km races, participants can enjoy a refreshment stand and a meal, reflecting the event's local, community-organized character.
