The Thompson Millennium Green 10K & 5K is an annual village run held in Thompson, Norfolk. It begins at 11:00 am from the Green, postcode IP24 1PU. The event features a 10K run and a 5K fun run. Both races utilize mixed surfaces, including paths, lanes, bridleways, farm tracks, and byroads surrounding the village, rather than closed city streets. The courses are relatively flat, offering opportunities for personal bests, and the 5K provides a shorter option for families and newer participants within the same rural setting. The 10K route commences on Thompson Millennium Green, proceeds through farmland tracks and byroads, connects with Griston Road, passes the Chequers pub, and concludes back on the Green. The 5K follows a comparable out-and-back village course. Volunteers organize the event to generate funds for Thompson Millennium Green, which is the Green’s primary annual fundraiser. Proceeds support its maintenance and development. The event relies significantly on local assistance, including marshals, timekeepers, car park attendants, finish-line photographers, kitchen volunteers, BBQ staff, and bakers contributing cakes. All finishers are awarded custom medals, leading runners receive trophies, and the post-race arrangements typically include hot dogs, refreshments, and homemade baked goods.

Rhino Run is a six-hour timed running event held near Skellingthorpe in Lincolnshire, located on Lincoln Road. Participants complete repeated laps to achieve their chosen distance, ranging from 5K and 10K up to half marathon, marathon, and ultra distances. The objective is straightforward: maintain movement within the time limit and accumulate laps. The course follows a flat out-and-back route along a disused railway line. It consists mainly of tarmac with a brief field section at the beginning and end. Each lap measures approximately 3.28 miles. The route is traffic-free and requires no navigation, making it suitable for runners seeking consistent pacing on a reliable surface.

The 5k is for runners aged 11 and over, while the 2k is open from age 4, with under-11s requiring an adult companion. Both routes utilize the park’s woodland trails and tracks, primarily on hard-packed surfaces. Runners must bring a head torch as the event takes place after dark. The courses are marked and marshalled, with professional first aid available at the start and finish. Fancy dress is encouraged. Race Harborough organizes the event, and the Halloween theme extends to the finish line: all participants receive a medal, free event photos, sweet treats, and a bag of Halloween chocolates.

The Nottingham MoRun takes place at Memorial Gardens Riverside on Victoria Embankment, featuring races of 1.5k, 5k, 10k, and a half marathon. As a November running event associated with Movember, the atmosphere is relaxed, encouraging participation from families, friends, and teams, often in costumes or headbands, with many running for a cause. The 1.5k Mini MoRun offers a chip-timed race for children, while adults can select from shorter runs up to a half marathon. The event benefits Movember, the charity focused on raising funds and awareness for prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health, and suicide prevention. Participants can contribute through donations during registration or by creating fundraising pages via Movember or JustGiving. All race distances are chip timed, providing immediate results. Finishers are awarded a MoRun medal and a MoRunning headband, with refreshments available at the finish line.

The course offers consistent terrain and requires no navigation. The task is straightforward: maintain pace, make the turn, and track laps. A related Halloween Trick or Trot Run in Kansas City’s Mill Creek Park provides 5K, 10K, and 13.1-mile choices. It is open to runners and walkers of all ages and paces, with free Halloween candy distributed post-race. Its wave start system may lead to popular start times filling before registration closes.

ATW Remembrance Runs take place at The Carver Barracks in Essex, the former Debden Airfield, on Remembrance weekend in November. The event supports The Felix Fund and provides four traffic-free distances: a half marathon, 10km, 5km, and a 1 mile race. The races utilize the flat concrete grounds of a disused Second World War airfield, making the running straightforward and fast underfoot. The day commemorates fallen service members, connecting it to the broader Remembrance tradition observed across Commonwealth countries since the end of the First World War. Music is provided on the course, children under eight may participate with a paying adult, and finishers receive custom medals, free event photos, and snacks at the finish.

Remembrance Run is a timed lap event held at Ferry Meadows, a country park situated just under three miles from Peterborough city centre. Participants select a six-hour duration starting at 9 am or a four-hour duration beginning at 11 am. They then complete 5.3K laps at a pace and volume they choose. The structure is intentionally flexible, allowing participants to run a single lap, complete a half-marathon distance, or continue towards ultra marathon distances. The course follows gravel footpaths through woodland, incorporating some grassy sections, offering more variety than a typical flat road circuit. Participants return to the central area after each lap, providing opportunities to stop, rest, and determine their next steps. Completing five laps constitutes the event’s standard “heavy half marathon,” and nine laps count as the standard ultra. Both distances can be extended on the day, and any runner starting a final lap before 5:59:59 will have it counted.

High Lodge Canicross 5k Series - Race 1 is a dog-and-runner trail race held at High Lodge in Thetford Forest, near Brandon.

Registration is in the morning, followed by a race brief and a staggered 09:00 start. The event is open to runners aged 16 and up, with accompanied children over 12 permitted. Dogs must be a minimum of 12 months old, and runners require their own canicross insurance. The course follows wide, hard-packed, traffic-free trails within Thetford Forest, suitable for dogs and owners running together, unlike a narrow technical trail. Timing is manual, photography is available, and water is provided, including on-course stations for dogs. The race is cupless; runners must bring their own hydration. An optional eco-friendly medal can be purchased, and the series features a festive-themed race where dressing up is encouraged.

The Nice Work Sherwood Christmas 10k is a festive trail race held at Sherwood Pines in Nottinghamshire, offering 10k, 5k, and Junior Run distances. The courses follow multi-terrain forest paths and feature undulating sections, meaning it is not a flat road race. It is designed for a wide range of participants, from regular runners aiming for prizes to first-timers and families seeking a run in the woods to conclude the year. The race incorporates a Christmas theme without overshadowing the running: participants are encouraged to embrace festive attire, with a prize for the best dressed runner alongside trophies and prizes for top finishers. All entrants receive a custom medal and complimentary race photographs. The event also generates funds for Shelter, the housing and homelessness charity assisting individuals experiencing homelessness, families in temporary housing, and others facing the risk of losing their homes.

This event is designed for a wide range of participants, from novice runners to experienced 5K participants, and is not intended as a specialist or elite competition. The course incorporates the Luminate attraction and adjacent estate trails, concluding within the grounds of Sandringham, the Royal Family's winter home. All finishers will receive a medal. The event village offers music, food, beverages, and amenities for after the race. Key logistical points are conveniently located: parking is approximately a 30-second walk from the start line, registration is a short distance from the parking area, and a bag drop is unnecessary because of the proximity of the car park.
