Défi des Collines

Défi des Collines is a challenging running event held in Sainte-Catherine-de-Hatley, Quebec, offering distances of 5.5 km, 11 km, 15 km, and 30 km. The courses feature scenic routes through hilly terrain, ideal for testing readiness for upcoming marathons and half-marathons. Participants benefit from water and sports drink stations every 2 to 3 km, medical support, and shuttle services for longer distances.

After the race, runners receive a medal, a gift, and a post-race meal, with awards for top finishers. The event fosters community spirit, supports local food banks, and encourages donations of winter clothing and shoes to those in need. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
