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.

The Kievit Sport Twentsche Cross Competitie features a running event in Goor, Overijssel, in the eastern Netherlands. Races are offered over 1.5 km, 5 km, and 10 km. Scheduled for early November, despite its name suggesting a cross competition, the stated surface is paved. This Goor event functions as a short road-race program rather than a muddy trail race. The 1.5 km distance provides a short option for younger runners, beginners, or those prioritizing speed. The 5 km and 10 km distances are suitable for local club runners and participants seeking a more challenging effort. The event is part of the Twentsche Cross Competitie calendar, with details available at twentsecrosscompetitie.nl.

Bosloop Malden begins on a grass field at the edge of Malden, leading runners onto wooded paths around the village near Nijmegen. It takes place annually on the first Sunday of November, offering running distances from the 500 m Bambinoloop for the youngest children up to 2 km, 5 km, 10 km, and 15 km. The event also includes walking routes of 3 km, 5 km, 7.5 km, and 10 km through Heumenoord. The course is predominantly off-road, utilizing forest paths and fields in the Heumensoord area near Malden. Local and regional participants attend for both leisurely runs and competitive efforts, with the timing aligning well for those preparing for the Zevenheuvelenloop two weeks later. Primary-school pupils from Heumen compete in their own MTM Kidsrun for the Scholenbokaal. Registration is exclusively through pre-registration, and each distance may close once its participant limit is met.

It is now held in November, having previously been a February event. Runners can choose from 5 km, 10 km, and 15 km distances, with a limit of 300 participants. The start and finish are located at Bospaviljoen 't Leesten, centering the race around the forest rather than a town. The routes traverse forest paths, sand, and heathland tracks, offering open views across the heath in certain sections. The 5 km and 15 km are designated as recreational routes, while the 10 km also serves as a club championship event for AV Veluwe members. Registration is exclusively online; late entries are not accepted. The practical arrangements are straightforward: parking and first aid are provided, but participants should not anticipate changing facilities.

The Dorpsrun Renswoude begins and ends at the parking lot of sports park de Hokhorst in Renswoude. This annual village road race offers distances for children and adults: a 1,000-meter Kidsrun, 5 km, 10.5 km, and a half marathon. The Kidsrun separates young runners into 4-9 and 10-12 age categories. The longer distances allow local runners, club runners, and visitors to choose between a shorter village race and a full 21.1 km run. The shortest route runs from De Hokhorst along Dickerijstlaantje and returns. The 5 km route incorporates De Hokhorst and Ubbeschoterweg. Now in its 40th edition, the event is an established fixture. Entries are capped at approximately 650 to 700 runners, and recent editions have sold out before race day. A substantial volunteer team manages the event, with local businesses also providing support, giving it the character of a community gathering for runners, families, friends, colleagues, and neighbors.

The Broekhuis Zandenplasloop begins at the Zandenplas in Nunspeet, leading runners directly into the Zandenbos, a forest surrounding the lake. This yearly road race in the Netherlands offers two distances: 5 km or 10 km. The event is designed for speed; organizers describe the 10 km as particularly fast, and the entire course is promoted as a swift run through the forest. Registration is limited to 1,000 participants and often sells out before the event. The course winds through the natural surroundings of the Zandenplas, featuring trees and water near the path instead of urban streets. It attracts local participants, visitors from beyond the region, recreational runners, and competitive athletes seeking a short, fast race. On-site registration is available if spots remain, but the participant cap is a key factor. The organizing body is affiliated with the Atletiekunie, the national athletics federation.

The LoveLife Run Deventer is a sponsored run and walk taking place in Deventer, Overijssel, offering 1 km and 5 km distances in November. While the 5 km is the primary distance, the event is designed for both running and walking. This inclusivity is significant as many participants are current or former cancer patients who run or walk with loved ones, caregivers, and medical professionals. Organized by Stichting Fight cancer, the focus is on raising donations for cancer research and local care, rather than solely on race times. The course is situated near Deventer Hospital and Brinkgreven, connecting the event directly to the local cancer care network. Funds raised benefit Fight cancer, Deventer Hospital, the Knowledge Center Oncology, and IPSO Center Salland. Participants have the opportunity to train weekly in small groups led by running coaches, with oncology physiotherapists offering guidance during their preparation. Each participant receives a personal fundraising page, and teams frequently form around patients, their families, friends, and healthcare providers, resulting in a start line featuring individuals with diverse roles within the same health journey.

The A.V. Climax Horaloop takes runners into the hills of Hoekelumse Bos and the Renkumse beek valley near Ede in Gelderland. This late-November running event includes youth races, 5 km, 10 km, and 10 English mile options (16.1 km). Organized by A.V. Climax, the race has over fifty editions, establishing it as a local fixture. Each distance features a single-lap course. Most runners can select between paved bike paths and unpaved road or path sides. The start area has an informal atmosphere: participants arrive with timing chips and bibs, park on a large grass field with volunteer assistance, warm up near Hoekelum, and converse with runners from local clubs before the start. The Climax Roparun team also participates, collecting donations for cancer patients and operating a stall offering cake, coffee, tea, and hot chocolate.

The Ellewicker Adventslauf is a small Advent running event in Vreden, located at the Köckelwicker Schützenhalle and organized by ASV Ellewick-Crosewick e.V.

Participants begin in front of the Schützenhalle and conclude inside the hall, making the venue the focal point of the afternoon. The children’s race covers two laps of a 0.5 km circuit, while the 5 km race uses two laps of a 2.5 km circuit. It welcomes families and regular runners alike, offering low entry fees, net timing, online results, and certificates for all finishers. The children’s race receives additional focus: trophies are awarded to the top three boys and girls in each age group, and participating children can enter a tombola by submitting their race number after finishing.
