When picking up your bib, a wristband will be put on your wrist. You must wear your wristband to access the start area. You must keep this wristband on until you leave the finish area after your race.
If your wristband is damaged, you may be denied access to the start area.
The buses leave as soon as they are full.
Only MARATHON bibs with “AUTOBUS” printed on it, will be accepted on these buses. Runners are responsible for showing up in time to catch their bus according to their start time.

No bus will bring back the runners to the start line after the race
There are several car parks available in the vicinity of the Station.
The runners are dropped off at the PLACE DU MARCHÉ in Val-David, in the heart of the Village, two steps away of the start site.
For runners who choose to take their car to go to Val-David, you should know that parking spaces are limited. The entire area of the village center will be closed to traffic. Parking is prohibited in the streets of Val-David. It will not be possible to drive to the start site. Traffic will be diverted to parking lots on the outskirts.
You can leave your personal belonging at the start of the 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.
The start area is located in the park: Léonidas Dufresne.
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.
Participant wristband
You will need to show your participant wristband to access the start corral. If a runner shows up with a damaged wristband, a check will be made and the runner must confirm his identity. The runner could miss his start. If the verification is not conclusive, the runner will not have access to the start corral and will not take the start. His bib number will be removed from the list of participants.
The clothes you intend to leave behind just before the start or along the course will be donated to charities.
