Course Information:
The New Orleans Mardi Gras Marathon presents an encore of last year's new course. Start and finish in front of the Louisiana Superdome! The course proceeds through the French Quarter via world famous Bourbon Street and Royal Street (yes...right down Bourbon Street!), then proceeds on historic St. Charles Avenue to Audubon Park, exiting at St. Charles Avenue and continuing down through the Garden District back to the Superdome where the half-marathoners finish. The marathon runners continue via Banks Street and Moss Street along picturesque Bayou St. John to a loop through City Park and back downtown to the finish in front of the Superdome. A fast and very flat course with no hills and most of route below sea level.
For the safety of all participants, NO bicycles (except those of race officals), roller blades, roller skates, baby joggers, hand cycles, skateboards, headphones, or pets or other animals will be allowed on the course. NO EXCEPTIONS! Brief Description:
Come join us in celebrating the renewal of New Orleans. Enjoy a flat, fast course as suitable for setting your PR or getting a Boston qualifier as it is for touring the historical neighborhoods traversed by the Marathon and Half-Marathon courses. Not up for the distance? Run the 5K and cheer the Half-Marathon and Marathon participants as they finish.
