Marathon de Rimouski

All the Marathon de Rimouski’s events are taking place on back-and-forth courses along the Saint Lawrence River. The courses are entirely flat or have only short and gentle false flats, for a maximal vertical drop of 10 meters over the distance of the marathon. The courses are duly certified by Athletics Canada, so the times achieved can be used as qualifying times for other events, including Boston Marathon. The first and last 5 kilometers are closed to vehicle traffic. Traffic is permitted on the rest of the course, but car density and speed are low.

The Marathon de Rimouski is rated among the fastest courses in North America while offering breathtaking views of the seashore. Whether you’re seeking a new personal best or you want to take on a challenge with family and friends, be among the 4,000 registrants!
