Safety tips
- if you see a participant in need, help them and notify someone in charge of the organization;
- If you feel unwell or unwell, walk slowly and tell a participant/volunteer near you.
Children and strollers
Children aged 17 and under can register at a reduced rate for the Défi Entreprises to accompany their parent.
They can also accompany their parent registered for the Challenge for free. In this case, they do not need to register and they participate without a bib. They do not receive a sweater or lunch.
You can participate with a child in a stroller. However, we ask you to be courteous with the other participants.
Walkers
Walkers are welcome during the Business Challenge. Each year, 20 to 30% of participants do so on a walk. For everyone's safety and enjoyment, walkers must keep to their right during the event.
Time measured by electronic chip
If you are participating in the 5 km SML Stainless Steel or at 10 km, your time will be recorded by electronic chip. Timing is provided by Horizon 5, with technology from Sportstats. The chip used for timing is a tab stuck to the back of the bib. There is no chip to attach to your shoe. You can find your results on Sportstats.
Universal accessibility presented by Christelle Montreuil – Consulting service in inclusive design

Participants using wheelchairs
Participants using wheelchairs are included in the same departures as all other participants. There is no designated category for this type of participant. We only ask you to carefully evaluate the time you think it will take to complete their Challenge.
Course
The 5 km course SML Stainless Steel (therefore the 10 km course since it is composed of 2 x the 5 km course) of the Trois-Rivières Corporate Challenge is accessible, but represents a challenge with a descent of 8,9% and an ascent of 6,7%.
For more information on the routes and their elevations, please refer to the Routes section.
Site accessibility
The site has several parking spaces reserved for people with disabilities. These spaces are reserved for people with a parking sticker for disabled people.
In addition, accessible public toilets are also available for participants.
If you are an athlete with a disability and want to participate in the event and have a question, please email us at info@defientreprises.com.
Results
Since the purpose of the Défi Entreprises is above all to promote adherence to healthy lifestyle habits, there are no trophies or individual podiums. Also, as the number of participants is high, we use the time of the chip to make our ranking. This time would therefore not be recognized as your official time if you break a Quebec or Canadian record.
