• Next, you will be asked to provide a URL for your qualifying results. All qualifying results should be from a race with a certified course in the previous calendar year. All qualifying times are subject to review and verification. If you do not provide a URL, you cannot start in a seeded corral.

RACE DAY CORRAL INSTRUCTIONS: The race begins near the NOLA Superdome on Poydras St., near Loyola Ave., in Downtown New Orleans. The Seeded corrals will start promptly at 8:00AM. Other corrals will follow with start times in 3-5-minute intervals.

CHIP TIMING: Finishing times in Results are based on when your chipped race bib crosses the start line, not the 8:00AM start time. Chip time will be used for official results.
