The Iron Gendarme Challenge is the only “trail” and obstacle race based on police training, organized by the Pediatric Research Foundation in collaboration with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the police services of the regions of Quebec. High-level or amateur athletes, adults, adolescents or children, the Iron Gendarme Challenge is accessible to everyone regardless of your level of physical fitness. Participants must complete a course including a trail race (2.5km, 5km or 10km) and several obstacles inspired by police training.
