The registration confirmation comes from the Race Roster registration platform and not from Je Cours Qc. Make sure you have not blocked the Race Roster sender. Also check your junk mail. The security level of the mailboxes can cause your registration confirmation to be rejected if you have a Hotmail address, for example.
If you still can’t find it, you need to go to your Race Roster dashboard. You will then be able to see your confirmation number.
Here’s how to access the Race Roster dashboard:
Also, know that we will send you the runner’s guide (notice of race) near the date of the event with your bib number.
Unfortunately, registration fees are neither refundable nor transferable to another year, regardless of the reason.
Please note that when you registered, you agreed to this policy. The following options are available to you:
• Event Distance Change:
Participants may change event distances up until the deadline posted on the website www.jecoursqc.com (subject to change without notice), depending on availability at the time of the request.
If applicable, the participant must pay the difference in registration fees between the two events, based on the rate in effect at the time of the change (excluding applicable taxes and service fees), plus a distance change administrative fee of $18 online or $25 on site at bib pickup, as indicated at the time of the change.
If a participant changes to an event with a lower registration fee than the one originally paid, no refund will be issued for the difference. The administrative change fee of $18 still applies.
After the deadline, changes to event distances can only be made in person during bib pickup hours (as listed on the website), subject to availability and at the discretion of the organizer. It is not possible to reserve a bib for a specific person after the event distance change deadline, nor to transfer registration to a future year.
• Event Change:
It is not possible to change between two events once registration is complete. If a participant cannot attend an event, they may transfer their registration to another person, subject to availability and organizer approval. Registration cannot be transferred to the following year.
• Registration Transfer:
We accept registration transfers up until the transfer deadline listed on www.jecoursqc.com, based on availability at the time of request.
Transfers between participants are completed directly in the participant’s Race Roster account, following the steps provided in the FAQ on our website.
The new participant pays the original registration fee plus a $18 transfer fee. Once the transfer is complete, the original participant is automatically refunded the registration fee they paid, excluding service fees.
If an event is sold out on the registration platform, participants will no longer be able to complete the transfer online and must do it in person during bib pickup hours (as listed on the website), subject to availability and organizer approval.
If a participant wishes to complete a transfer in person at bib pickup, they must provide written proof (printed or digital) authorizing the new participant to take over their registration in a format acceptable to the event organizer.
In-person or late transfers are subject to an administrative fee of $18 or $25 payable by the new participant. The initial participant’s service fees are non-refundable. It is not possible to simultaneously change the participant and event distance in a single transaction. If the new participant also wishes to change the event distance, they must do so in a separate transaction, subject to standard fees ($18 online, $25 in person) and availability.
Deadline for All Transfers and/or Event Distance Changes by Event:
Important to Know:
It is strictly forbidden to participate in the event using someone else’s bib. Participants must run with the bib that was personally assigned to them.

*2024 INFORMATION FOR REFERENCE ONLY
To meet our standards of safety, comfort at start and finish sites and runner experience on the course, the 5 km is, this year, the only race that allows us to test this pilot project. If the response to this product is strong, it is possible that the express bib will be available for more races of the Beneva Quebec City Marathon in the 2024 season.
It is not possible to obtain a shirt or medal, even if you pay an extra, due to the limited quantity reserved for regular registrations for the 2023 season.

Yes, all participants are eligible.
Yes! Once you cross the finish line, there will be two separate corridors: One for participants with medals, the other for participants without medals. Volunteers will guide you.

We can’t deny you that. Note that the Fédération québécoise d’athlétisme does not recommend wearing headphones on the runners’ course. If you want to run with music, you need to be able to hear sounds from outside such as a runner asking you to pass, a policeman giving you instructions or a volunteer giving you instructions. This is for your safety and that of other participants and volunteers.
Photos taken by our in-house photographers will be posted on our social media channels in the next few days, while photos taken by Marathon Photos will be notified by e-mail.
The official time corresponds to the Gun time. It is the time from the starting gun. It is the time that elapses on the clock from the beginning of the race. The Chip time is the time from the moment the participant crosses the starting line and the chip on their bib is triggered. Unless you are on the front line of the race, there is inevitably a difference between the official time and the chip time.
Remember, the chip time is shorter than the gun time, as this only starts when you cross the timing mat at the start line. The further back you are in the starting pack, the greater the difference between these times will be. For any timing errors, please click here to contact our official timer, Sportstats, directly.
