What you should know

  • The start (Champions Square) and finish (City Park) are in different places, so plan transport and bag check ahead.
  • Check the official course time limit. Roads reopen behind the sweep vehicle, and slower runners may move to sidewalks.
  • The course is almost flat (+140m), so it's easy to start too fast. Hold goal pace for the first half.
  • New Orleans humidity can make 15°C feel warmer, so drink at aid stations before you feel thirsty.
  • Pick up your bib at the expo before race day. Confirm the dates and any rules on who can collect it for you.
