Übach-Palenberg周辺の5Kレース

The Korschenbroich Forest Run takes place at Am Sportplatz in Korschenbroich. The event offers 5K and 10K races, providing standard distances for participants. The event includes options for children and students, catering to a range of age groups.

The Wilhelminaberg Trappen Marathon course for runners includes a 248-meter staircase with 508 steps. This race takes place in Landgraaf, South Limburg, situated on the 93-meter Wilhelminaberg, which is the highest slag heap in the Netherlands. It is a lap-based road and stair race, offering distances from 5 km up to a marathon, alongside a kids run and a Business Run for teams of up to five. Each standard lap is 1,090 meters. Consequently, the 5 km requires 5 laps, the 10 km is 10 laps, the 10 mile is 16 laps, the half marathon is 21 laps, and the marathon is 42 laps. The full marathon involves runners ascending the staircase 44 times, totaling 22,350 steps. This is why Dutch media refers to it as the toughest marathon in the Netherlands. The kids run features a scaled-down version of the central element: it begins at the base of the stairs and concludes at the summit.

The Viersener Herbstwaldlauf Rund um den Bismarckturm is an autumn forest race in Viersen, Germany. All races start and finish at Stadion Hoher Busch.

The Semi-Marathon de la province de Liège begins on Île Monsin, at the Esplanade Roi Albert, and concludes near the new Coronmeuse eco-district. It is a flat, fast race day centered on the half marathon and 10 km, with a 5 km race, an 8 km walk, and a children’s race also scheduled. The start area is at the end of the tram line, allowing runners to reach it by tram at Coronmeuse, a small detail that recalls the old Liège marathon era. The route traces parts of Liège’s industrial and riverside landscape: the banks of the Meuse, the canal, Coronmeuse and its track, the Chertal redevelopment site, and the company roads of Île Monsin, including road number 12. A section of the half marathon follows the path of Liège’s historic marathon; the city hosted one of the world’s earliest marathons, and this event revives that old course. The post-race village is located on the island, near passing boats, making the finish area feel connected to the river and port as much as to the race itself.

Cité Run Eisden takes place in October in Eisden-Tuinwijk, starting at Vrije Basisschool de Griffel. The schedule includes a 5 km race in the morning, followed by a 10 km race an hour later. A Kidsrun is held after midday, with children signing up via their school. The course stays within Eisden-Tuinwijk, passing notable local sites. It accommodates individual runners and workplace teams of five or six, who can enter the 5 km or 10 km races as a group using special team packages. Parking is available at Kerkplein. Organisers will give a surprise to the 50th, 100th, and 200th registrants.

The Semi de la Province de Liège begins on Île Monsin, at the Esplanade Roi Albert near the Coronmeuse tram stop, the terminus of Liège’s tram line. This October road race centers on a half marathon, also offering 10 km and 5 km races, plus children’s events and a walking tour on the same day. The routes are flat and quick, with all finishes located close to the new Coronmeuse eco-district. The race draws from Liège’s marathon heritage; the city was the sixth globally to host a marathon, and a section of the current route retraces that original path. For the half marathon and 10 km events, the course order has been altered: the final three kilometers of the previous route now form the beginning, and the initial three kilometers are now at the end. Approximately 6,000 runners are anticipated, with the post-race area situated near the parade boats.

The Rursee Marathon begins in Einruhr-Simmerath, within Germany’s Eifel National Park. The main race starts at 10:30 on the first Sunday in November. First held in 1997, it is a trail-heavy marathon, not a flat city race, covering 42.2 km of nature tracks with approximately 370 metres of elevation gain. The marathon typically attracts 400 to 500 runners, and the entire event draws about 1,000 to 3,000 participants across multiple distances. The weekend offers several event options for runners and walkers: a 16.5 km race, a 5 km race, a 2 km children’s race, and a 16.5 km walk or Nordic walk on Saturday. The 16.5 km run was introduced after the marathon was established, and the Rursee-Ultra, a longer distance, is held every second year. While the course setting is a primary attraction, it is not a simple sightseeing run; the marathon is generally considered a challenging race on natural paths around the Rursee area.

The Rurbrückenlauf is a running race series held in Linnich, Germany. All races commence and conclude at SIG Combibloc Systems. The adult schedule includes a flat 5.2 km run and an 11.5 km run over rolling terrain, with the event taking place in November. The 5.2 km race is suitable for runners seeking a straightforward, level course. The 11.5 km option provides more varied terrain without becoming a trail race. Races for children and youth are also included, ensuring the day caters to more than just adult distance runners.

Runners dressed as Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus complete a 5 km run through Amersfoort's center on a Friday evening before Christmas. The Kerstmannenloop is a social fun run, focusing on moving together through the city rather than achieving a specific time. The run begins and ends at Oliemolenhof in De Nieuwe Stad. The course follows the Eem from De Nieuwe Stad, passes through the city center, and circles back via Oude Fabriekstraat and Oliemolenhof. Approximately 1,600 Santas and Mrs. Clauses participate, and the event can sell out. Following the run, attendees enjoy mulled wine and a dance party at Zandfoort aan de Eem. A portion of the proceeds benefits Stichting WereldOuders, supporting vulnerable children in Latin America.

Energie Cross Neukirchen is an annual cross-country running event in Grevenbroich, Germany, organized by SG Neukirchen Hülchrath. The races utilize natural terrain away from roads and paved paths, making it a true cross run rather than a road race with some grass. The listed distances include a short 0.5 km option and a 5.1 km race. The program features individual races and a cross-relay, accommodating teams alongside solo runners. Registration is available online, with late sign-ups also possible on event day. Route maps, travel details, parking information, and results are managed through the organizer’s online information.
