The Warburger Oktoberwochenlauf is a local running event held at Sportzentrum Diemelaue in Warburg, Germany. The start and finish lines are at the sports center on Bernhardistraße, centering the day around this single location. Student races begin the morning, followed by a 21.5 km race, a 5 km race, and a 10 km race. Entry fees are kept low, with distinct prices for youths or students and adults. The event features a 5 km company team competition, offering workplaces a specific reason to participate as a group. Each company team consists of three people and must have at least one woman and one man. The team's time is determined by summing individual times, with the three fastest runners from each company contributing to the overall score. Registration is managed online via RaceResult; no on-site entries are accepted. Warburger SV and RaceResult will post the results afterward.

Herbstlauf Ovenhausen is an autumn road race in Höxter-Ovenhausen, North Rhine-Westphalia. Races typically start in the afternoon from Hauptstrasse 82. TuS Ovenhausen 1924 e.V. organizes the event, which offers distances from short children’s races up to 20.8 km. The schedule also includes 10 km, 4.5 km, 1 km, and 400 m runs, plus a 4.5 km walk. It is part of the Hochstift-Cup and attracts a few hundred participants, not a large city crowd. The race has taken place since 1978, giving it the feel of a long-standing local club event with a comprehensive family program, not just a single main distance. The youngest children compete in a 400 m race. Age groups U8 to U16 have 1000 m options. The 4.5 km and 10 km races are open to all, while the 20.8 km race is for U20 and older. The event also hosts the Höxter district forest running championships: club runners from the district are automatically entered into these championships for the 4.5 km race (U14/U16) and the 10 km race (U18 and older). Kilometer markers and aid stations are available on the course. Changing rooms, showers, parking, refreshments at the finish, certificates, and finisher medals for children are provided, typical of a smaller race.

The Almetal-Marathon is a point-to-point running event in Germany’s Alme valley. The marathon begins in Büren-Ringelstein and concludes at Ahorn-Sportpark in Paderborn. This main race spans 42 km. The event also offers two half marathons and a four-person relay, with each leg covering 10.5 km. Rot-Weiß Alfen e. V. organizes the race, presenting it as one built by runners for runners. It accommodates both competitive athletes and those seeking a shared outdoor run. The route traces the Alme river through the Paderborn district. The two half marathons utilize distinct segments: the upper half runs from Büren-Ringelstein to Wewelsburg, and the lower half proceeds from Wewelsburg to Paderborn. The course is characterized as rolling, with a modest elevation change of 10 meters of climbing and 10 meters of descent. The relay allows teams to divide the full distance. The event is an established part of the regional sports calendar.

The Bilstein-Marathon is a trail and landscape running event held in Kleinalmerode, a district of Witzenhausen in Hesse, Germany, typically in mid-April. The primary location is the Kaufunger Wald Nature Park in central Germany. The event's name originates from the Bilstein Tower, the park's highest point. The program offers participants several options: a 21 km half marathon, a 42 km marathon, a 57 km ultra-trail, a hiking marathon, and races for children and juniors. The 21 km, 42 km, and 57 km courses are designed as single loops, focusing the day's activity on crossing forest and hills rather than repeating circuits near town. The Bilstein Tower serves as a notable course landmark; from its summit, views extend towards the Harz mountains and Kassel. LG Kaufungen e.V. is the organizing body, and the team meticulously marks all routes, ensuring runners do not solely depend on digital navigation tools.
