There is no package pick-up on race day.

We ask that everyone show up early and be diligent with their arrival time to allow for proper screening and parking.

We ask that everyone have their race bib clearly visible and available for inspection upon arrival at the McCarthy Boulevard entrance gate. (we want to verify that the vehicles coming on site are race registrants).

If runners are bringing family or friends we ask that they all be in the same vehicle as much as reasonably possible. If they cannot be in the same vehicle then indicate this to security at the gate. ("my wife is in the car behind me" etc)

Participants are asked to lock their belongings, out of plain view, inside their vehicles.

Please use the McCarthy Boulevard entrance off Dewdney Avenue for the race. Signage and traffic directors will be at the gate for parking.

Walkers on the course should yield to runners. If the running/walking path is congested, please stay to the right, allowing runners to pass on your left.

During the race, in the interest of safety, please stay on the side of the road where possible. Remember motorists have the right of way, unless a RCMP officer gives them other directions.

The use of portable headphone devices (iPods, MP3 players) is not permitted. For your safety, and that of others, you must be aware of your surroundings at all times. This includes being able to hear verbal warnings from police and course marshals as well as the sounds of traffic or other participants on the course.

There are Paramedics (EMT) cycling along the course during the race. Water Station will be at the Start/Finish Line.

Course marshals will be wearing distinctive clothing and will be positioned along the course to direct both motorists and participants as necessary. The course will be marshalled until the last one is done.

Washrooms are located inside the Drill Hall.

Strollers are NOT allowed on the course. No participation using bicycles, strollers, skateboards or in-line skates will be allowed. As well as NO PETS.

A digital clock will be positioned so you can see your results as you cross the finish line. Volunteers will assist you after you cross the finish line and direct you into the recovery area.

Brunch buffet will begin at 10:00 a.m. with a short awards ceremony beginning at 10:30 a.m.

Your race/bib number is your entrance for the brunch. Please ensure that you do not remove it until you enter the brunch.

Race results will be posted on www.jaletapacers.com the day following the race.

If you registered for 10km and decided to stop after the 1st 5km loop, your time will not be recorded. Also if you choose to stop after 5km, please step aside and do not cross the timing mat as the system will not be accurate. Your race time will be listed as DNF (did not finish).

A parent or guardian must meet their child at the finish line upon completion of the Mini Mountie run then proceed directly into the Drill Hall for their medal presentation. Look for the RCMP Safety Bear mascot near the Drill Hall side entrance located close to the finish line. Children cannot be left unattended.

Mini Mountie medal presentations will take place near the large Canadian flag in the Drill Hall. Professional photographic services will be available at that time.

700 maximum participants.

A course map will be included with your race kit.

The course is fast and flat with a 5 km loop run twice for the 10 km distance allowing great viewing opportunities for both participants and spectators.

The course is laid out entirely within the boundaries of the historic RCMP Academy, Depot Division (commonly known as "Depot").

With a proud heritage of over 100 years, Depot is the only location where the RCMP trains its cadets.

Don't miss this unique and exciting opportunity to run with the troops at the Home of the RCMP!

Due to ongoing cadet training and other site restrictions, public access to the course prior to race day is not available.
