It is with great pleasure that the Marathon P’tit Train du Nord welcomes you. We are very happy to have you among our runners. We look forward to seeing you Saturday September 30! Beyond performance, self-fulfillment!
Please read this guide to the end. We will not be able to answer the questions answered in this guide.
Date : Saturday september 30th, 2023
First start: 8h00
Décathlon Boisbriand Sport Store
2525 rue d’Annemasse, Boisbriand, Qc J7H 0A3
The times for the race bib pickup correspond to the store’s opening hours.
It will not be possible to collect your bib on the day of the marathon or at any other time outside the scheduled hours.
Au moment de récupérer votre dossard, un bracelet sera mis à votre poignet. Vous devez obligatoirement porter votre bracelet pour accéder au corral de départ. Vous devez garder ce bracelet jusqu’au moment de quitter la zone d’arrivée après votre course.
Si vous portez un bracelet endommagé, vous pourriez vous voir refuser l’accès à la zone de départ.
Les autobus partent dès qu’ils sont pleins.
Les coureurs sont responsables de se présenter à temps pour prendre leur autobus en fonction de l’heure de leur départ.
Assurez-vous de ne rien laisser dans l’autobus
Aucun autobus ne ramènera les coureurs à la ligne de départ, après la course
Il y a plusieurs parcs de stationnement disponibles dans les environs de la Gare.
Only the buses transporting the runners will have access to the start site. All runners, without exception, must take the bus to get to the start. With the increased number of participants, the accommodation capacity and the very limited infrastructure of the Piedmont Train Station sector, we had to adopt this new measure in consultation with the Municipality of Piedmont. Potentially close to a thousand vehicles would have converged at the same time towards the Piedmont Train Station. Such a situation would be critical for the safety of participants, spectators and the residents of Piedmont. Congestion in the area would make it impossible for emergency vehicles to pass. The safety of citizens can in no way be compromised. We are aware that this measure may be restrictive for some people. However, we believe that you will be understanding about this safety issue for the citizens who welcome us. All half-marathon runners without exception will have to take the bus provided for this purpose, from the Vieille Gare de Saint-Jérôme to get to the starting site in Piedmont. Participants who intend to come by their own means and who will not take the bus will not be allowed in the starting area and will not take the start of the half-marathon.
As a security measure, we ask accompanying persons not to come to the Piedmont station area throughout the departure period. A very large number of cars could affect the smooth running of the starts and the safety of the runners. Parking is prohibited at all times throughout Piedmont.
The starting site is reserved exclusively for Half-Marathon participants. Only runners with bib and bracelets will have access to the starting site. Accompanying persons, spectators and cars do not have access to the starting site
You can leave your personal belonging at the start of the half-marathon.
All bags not claimed on the day of the Marathon will be donated to community or charitable organizations. After the Marathon weekend, it will no longer be possible to collect your bag.
Be vigilant not to miss your start! You must report to the starting corral as soon as your start number is called.
You must wear your bib to access the start corral. You will need to wear your participant wristband.
YOU WILL NEED TO WEAR TWO (2) WRISTBANDS
The clothes you intend to leave behind just before the start or along the course will be donated to charities.
