About the race
BACKYARD is a free, festive and inclusive outdoor running event organized by UTLIV Running, Loop Run Club and Mathilda Café on November 21 in Saint-Jérôme. The event centers on repeated laps of a trail loop, with a single loop measured at 6.7 km and an option to continue until a cumulative distance of 60 km.
Each completed loop earns a ticket for a prize draw with items from partners including CIELE, NÄAK and TOPO ATHLETIC. A Strava route and written course indications will be provided to guide participants. The gathering is planned outside Mathilda Café near Parc naturel du Lac-Jérôme, with parking at the Complexe sportif.
On site there will be a fire and coffee available directly outside the café. Participants are asked to bring their own food, a camping chair and clothing suited to the weather. The event is free and proceeds in collaboration with ANEB Anorexie et Boulimie Québec; an optional donation starting at CAD 20 includes a complimentary pair of socks. Capacity is limited and refunds are available up to seven days before the event. The event is intended to take place outdoors regardless of weather conditions.
