    -What i didn’t like is that you have to wait 90 minutes to get your bib at the expo. The organization told us to go from 9am to 1pm on friday to have less people later on.
    -They aren’t many people cheering you on the botanical garden.
    -You have a hill at the end to the Olympic stadium.

    Starting line from Île Sainte Hélène, then a crossing of the Saint Lawrence River, followed by the center of Old Montreal. Your steps will guide you towards beautiful residential areas of the city and frequent crossings of wooded parks, to finally bring you to the forecourt of the Olympic site for a well-deserved consecration of your 26.2.
    I definitely recommend this Quebec marathon to anyone who wants to run a party marathon in Canada.

    Best part of the race was the start. They started exactly on time and every corral started every 3 minutes. Decent crowd support once we hit the city streets. Water stations was spaced ok. The one station that had nutrition ran out fast so a lot of runners had nothing. Considering the price of the race you’d think you’d get the race short like every other race. Nope, if you want a shirt you have to pay extra. The swag was the cheapest looking medal I’ve ever seen. And like someone else said the after race snacks was extremely poor. That being said I did enjoy the race itself.

    It was my first marathon and really enjoyed and completed it.
    Good scenic views of the city. 9000 runners (marathon + half) in the streets of Montreal. No real difficulties during the race, pretty flat most of the time.
    However snack at the end was very poor.

    Congrats on your first marathon, Thierry! As a runner there's no better feeling... and hopefully it's the first of many! 👏🏅

    Thank you very much. You are totally right...such a great feeling of accomplishment crossing the Finish line. Looking forward for another one probably in 2023.
