Corridas de 5K perto de Saint-Hyacinthe

Défi À Votre Rythme is a run-or-walk event at Parc de l'Ile-Lebel on rue Notre-Dame in Repentigny, Quebec. It offers 500m, 1km, 2km, 5km, and 10km distances, so children, adults, competitive runners, and people joining for fun can all pick a distance that fits them. The event has been held since 2013 and is organized by Fondation Santé Sud de Lanaudière to raise money for the oncology department at Hôpital Pierre-Le Gardeur. The 10km race is made up of five loops, while children can enter the 500m or 1km races. The event was formerly called Course à Votre Santé and carries a Bronze sanction from the Fédération québécoise d'athlétisme. The site also includes booths and a kids' zone with inflatable games, face painting, and surprises, which makes the day more like a family fundraiser than a runners-only meet. The previous edition had 512 finishers, with more women than men crossing the line.

The Course des récoltes de Saint-Joseph is an October road race in Saint-Hyacinthe, Quebec, featuring short distances suitable for families, schools, workplaces, walkers, and runners. The event provides 1 km, 2 km, 5 km, and 10 km options. These include accessible 1 km and 2 km events, a 1 km race for children 12 and under, a 5 km that accommodates both running and walking, and a timed 10 km. Athletics Quebec sanctions the race, and the 5 km and 10 km courses are certified. The race emphasizes community participation over intense competition, although timed and certified courses offer a challenge for competitive runners. Businesses, primary schools, and secondary schools can participate in team challenges, aiming to accumulate the most kilometres to win a souvenir banner. Organizers focus the day on promoting healthy habits, team spirit, camaraderie, and personal development. The event is relatively new, with only a few editions held so far.
