If you have done Louisiana Marathon and liked it, this is the sister race run by the same company.
They bus all the marathoners 26.2 miles away from the start line and almost the whole course is along the beach. It's all flat except for the last 2 miles where you run up a ramp to get on the highway.
There isn't much crowd support along the way, because most people go to the baseball stadium to watch the finish and have some gumbo. If you're looking for a beautiful and peaceful run with
delicious food at the end, this is your race. Also, if you participate in any of the events of this race weekend in December and any of the races for Louisiana Marathon Weekend in January, the give you an extra medal. They call it the Beach to Bayou challenge.
