Marathon Beneva de Québec expects 20,000 participants

The 27th edition of the Marathon Beneva de Québec is scheduled to take place from October 2 to 4, with more than 20,000 runners and walkers expected to participate. The event features five different races held over two days, including a 5 km health run, a 10 km race, a 2 km youth race, a half-marathon, and the full 42.2 km marathon.

Registration for the event has seen a 21% increase compared to 2025, and approximately 30% of participants are traveling from outside of Québec. Organizers note that this influx of participants contributes significantly to the region's economic impact. The event also serves as the site for the Québec road marathon championships.
