More than 8,400 runners and walkers will line up on May 3 and 4, 2025.
Lévis, Monday, February 24, 2025 – The Lévis Promutuel Assurance Half-Marathon is officially sold out for the third consecutive year! All the bibs were snapped up well ahead of the event, approximately two months in advance, setting a record-breaking timeline. Over 8,400 runners and walkers will gather in Lévis on May 3 and 4 to participate in the various events offered: the 21.1 km Promutuel Assurance, the 10 km Sports Experts, the 5 km Lévis Subaru, and the Youth Race (2 km).
With a 15% increase compared to its previous participation rate, the event has reached an unprecedented level of popularity, much to the delight of Marianne Pelchat, delegated producer at Gestev: "Seeing such enthusiasm is a great testament to the growing and engaging sports community with our events. This popularity confirms that our efforts to offer memorable experiences resonate with participants, and I couldn’t ask for more."
Let’s remember that the event will span the entire weekend, on Saturday, May 3, and Sunday, May 4, for the second consecutive year. For this 21st edition, the Corporation Événements Course de Québec and Gestev are also happy to count on the major involvement of Promutuel Assurance as the title sponsor of the Lévis Promutuel Assurance Half-Marathon, until 2027.
The course of the Lévis Promutuel Assurance Half-Marathon, along the Saint Lawrence River, is greatly appreciated by participants for its downhill and fast nature, not to mention the breathtaking view offered by the Parcours des Anses, recognized as one of the most beautiful bike paths in North America.
