The Marathon starts on the Jacques-Cartier Bridge at 8:30 am. To get to the starting line, we recommend you take the "METRO" (subway train system- underground) from the closest METRO station near you, and exit at the "Parc Jean-Drapeau" station, which is on the yellow line.. As you exit the underground station, and exit to outside, please follow directions and signs, to the start area on the bridge. * Please allow a 15 minute walk from the Parc Jean-Drapeau station to get to the starting line on the bridge!

All entrants in the Marathon will receive a medal, the official technical shirt, a light lunch at the finish line as well as a personalized certificate, available from our website a few weeks after the event.
All runners must pick up their kit ( bib number which includes the timing chip, and t-shirt) at the Marathon-Expo. Visit the Marathon-Expo section on our website for details.
The Parc Maisonneuve will be the finish line for all participants. All runners and walkers are invited to the rest and refreshment area, where a complimentary light lunch will be offered, by the Oasis Montreal Marathon. For details, click here.

The time limit to complete the 42,195 km (26.2 mile marathon) is 5 hours and 45 minutes. All runners who will exceed the time of more than 5 hours and 45 minutes should use the sidewalks for their own safety and security, which we always recommend.
At the Marathon-Expo, you will receive a plastic bag to place your personal clothing in, that you may want to wear after the race, to keep yourself warm and dry. To use this baggage check service, you must use this SAME plastic bag on the morning of the race. You will be able to leave your personal effects at the start of the race, and they will be shipped to the finish line for you, where you can retrieve them until 3:30pm.
Pace runners will help and encourage marathon runners to achieve a "goal time" performance. Experienced runners known as “pace bunnies" will be identified with a "pace finish time" sign, with rabbit ears on it. Time will be: 3:30, 3:45, 4:00, 4:15, 4:30 and 4:45. They will also provide some advice, encouragement, and motivation during the run.
