The event provides wooden medals made in Québec for each participant, with an option to decline the medal at registration to reduce waste. The 5 km course has a water station at kilometre 3; the 10 km course has water stations at kilometres 3 and 7. A medical plan is in place with a vehicle from the PEPS clinic and a first aid station near the start. Streets will be closed to automobile traffic during the event.
Bib pickup takes place at the PEPS in front of Decathlon on the day before the race and on the morning of the event; bibs can also be picked up near the track on race day. Parking at the PEPS is paid as of 1 September 2025 with a maximum event day fee of CA$6.20; organizers note that some nearby streets will be closed. Registration transfers and refunds (less transaction fees) are allowed up to 30 days before the event; later changes may incur fees or restrictions.
