The Osterfeiner SgH Dümmerlauf begins on the dike at Olgahafen in Dümmerlohausen, near Damme in Lower Saxony. This landscape run is organized by SW Osterfeine, with its route around the Dümmer See, the second-largest lake in the state.

The race supports the “Sportler gegen Hunger” initiative, and its twelfth running attracted a large field despite additional organizational hurdles.

Saerbecker Kirmeslauf starts and finishes at Sparkassen-Stadion-Saerbeck on Lindenstrasse, with racing on German Unity Day. SC Falke Saerbeck 1924 e.V. organizes the event, which offers a 400 m Bambini run, 1.2 km and 2 km school races, a 5 km Jedermannlauf, and a 10 km main race. The short races make room for young children and school-age runners, while the measured 5 km and 10 km give older runners a proper road-race option. The route uses flat side streets around Saerbeck on a fully asphalted, fast course, and the 5 km and 10 km are measured with a Jones Counter under DLV rules. Timing comes from a transponder on the back of each bib, and finishing order decides the results. Every child in the children's runs gets a medal, overall awards go three deep for men and women in each race, and age-group winners are also honored. Headphones are not allowed on the course, and runners are asked to park away from the stadium because nearby parking is limited.
