The De Beuningse Plasloop is an annual run in Beuningen, Gelderland, organized around the lake at the edge of town. This local road race includes 10 km and 5 km distances, two Kidsrun options, and an Ondernemersrun for corporate teams. The event accommodates a wide range of participants for its size: children, adult runners, competitive athletes, framerunners, and business teams are all included in the program. The course circles a former sand extraction site and follows the Beuningse Plas, primarily on paved paths outside the town limits. The route is mostly clear of vehicle traffic, with W.S.V. "de Beuningse Plas" acting as the start, finish, and central point. Post-race, participants gather at the clubhouse terrace, where volunteers from the watersports club offer drinks. The race employs electronic timing, posts results later, and presents medals and awards across multiple categories, including a special prize for the quickest entrepreneur.

Langs de Gouweloop is a local road race in Waddinxveen, organized by Sportclub Antilope. The start and finish are on Gouweplein at the town’s shopping center. The program includes a 1.3 km kids run, and 5 km and 10 km performance runs for older participants. From Gouweplein, the route goes past the train station between Coenecoop and the Triangel district. A large part of the race takes place in Triangel before returning to the shopping center. The event has passed fifty editions, making it a long-running fixture.

The AVH baanloop is a low-key track race in Hoofddorp, organized by Atletiekvereniging Haarlemmermeer. It takes place on the first Monday of each month, with pauses during winter and summer holidays. Participants can run 3 or 5 kilometers on the club’s synthetic track. The summer edition also features 5 kilometer runs in Arnolduspark. The cost is 2 euros, and registration is open in the AVH canteen until 30 minutes before the start. This event is designed for both ordinary and fast runners, intended for anyone who can run for half an hour and wishes to do so with or against others. Chip timing records every lap, allowing runners to review their split times later, with all results posted on the AVH website. The top three male and female finishers get small prizes, and there is also a start-number lottery. The track is soft enough for participants to wear old sneakers.

The Dordtse Biesbosch Trailrun begins and ends at the organizer's grounds on Schenkeldijk in Dordrecht, South Holland. This trail race crosses the Nieuwe Dordtse Biesbosch, offering distance options from short Family Runs to a half marathon. Participants can select 3 km or 5 km Family Run courses, a standard 5 km, 10 km, 10 English Miles, or a 21.1 km half marathon, catering to children, novice runners, and those seeking a longer off-road challenge. The courses feature narrow paved paths, unpaved tracks, sandy stretches, and dikes, leading through the Nieuwe Dordtse Biesbosch, the floodplains beside the Nieuwe Merwede, and the Elzenbos. The trail surface may present puddles, streams, branches, and tree trunks, making the race a test of adaptability to varied terrain rather than a pursuit of speed on a smooth road. The start-finish area provides baggage drop-off and changing facilities. The event maintains a relaxed outdoor atmosphere with campfires, marshmallow roasting for children post-race, and refreshments including coffee, tea, soft drinks, satay, and beer.

The EpilepsieLoop Amersfoort is a running and walking event held in Amersfoort, located in the Dutch province of Utrecht. The event details specify the location and the types of activities, but do not list specific distances, a designated start area, or a mapped course. The event welcomes both runners and walkers, indicating it is not solely a competitive road race for those focused on timing. For the most current information, participants are directed to the organizer's website, epilepsieloop.nl.

The LoveLife Run Amsterdam is a 5K race in Amsterdam for individuals living with cancer, cancer survivors, and their support networks. The Amsterdam event is scheduled for October, with past editions linked to the June Yet Zuidas Run held on the Zuidas. Stichting Fight cancer is the organizing body. The run serves a dual purpose: participants train to complete the 5-kilometer distance while simultaneously fundraising for cancer research. The race emphasizes support throughout the preparation period, extending beyond the event itself. Individuals can participate solo or as part of a team, often running with family, friends, medical professionals, or other caregivers. A 12-week training program is available for patients, guided by trainers from the Cancer Care Centre and FTSA who possess oncology expertise. The Amsterdam event has previously utilized a dedicated start area within the Yet Zuidas Run, providing LoveLife runners with a distinct space within a larger city race. A recent edition generated over EUR80,000 for Stichting Fight cancer. The training component also aims to foster connections among patients and aid them in rebuilding confidence in their physical capabilities during or after treatment.

The Fearless 5K is a five-kilometer community run taking place in Amsterdam’s Amsterdamse Bos, with the event area situated near the BosTheater. This run is held on the International Day of the Girl and is organized by Project Fearless. The entry fee functions as a donation to the organization, not as a standard race charge. The route follows a simple 5 km distance, but the event is intended for more than just fast running. Participants of all ages, genders, and speeds are welcome. Remote runners can also take part from other locations. Amsterdam participants have the option to register with or without a T-shirt, whereas remote participants do not receive one. This marks the race's fourth edition.

The AVA Mica IT Baanloop (October) is a short track run held at the AVA athletics track, located at Sportlaan 43 in Aalsmeer, Netherlands. It is structured as a training run, offering three straightforward distance options: 1 km, 3 km, or 5 km. All three races commence in the evening, and the entry fee is a modest €4.00, aligning with the uncomplicated club atmosphere. The entire event takes place on the athletics track, meaning participants run measured laps instead of roads or trails. The participant limit is 100, and late registration is permitted. AV Aalsmeer is the organizing club, affiliated with the Atletiekunie, the Dutch athletics federation.

The GOUDasfaltloop is a small running event in Gouda with a cap of 150 participants and distances from 240 meters up to 10 km. It includes short youth races under the KidsRun banner, plus 5 km and 10 km options for adults or older runners, and the Pacer element gives runners a way to aim for a steadier target pace. Entry fees are low, from €5 to €13, and late registration is allowed when places are still available. The route goes through the Veerstalblok polder and over the Tiendwegen, with the start, passing points, and finish tied to the GOUDasfalt event grounds. That setup keeps the race compact: runners head out into open polder roads and return to the same event site. Earlier editions also included a photo contest and small surprise elements, so the day is pitched more as a local community race than a large city run.

AVH Nightrun guides participants through Haarlemmermeerse Bos after dark, equipped with headlamps and surrounded by Halloween themes. This evening forest run, organized by AV Haarlemmermeer, offers three distances: 8.88 km, 5.1 km, and a 0.888 km youth run divided by age for children 9-12 and 1-8. The course winds through a atmospherically lit forest, featuring a climb up Big Spotters Hill, a notable park landmark. Light, music, and Halloween elements are integrated into the event itself. Each participant receives a headlamp, and young runners are awarded a medal upon finishing.

The Zorg en Zekerheid Circuit is a paved road running series held in Leiden, South Holland. Participants can register for the entire circuit rather than individual race days, with 5 km, 10 km, and 15 km distances available.

The entry form lists short, middle, and long distance categories, along with a short-distance option for ages 12-18. Runners aged 15 and under require parental or guardian consent.
