  • Lots of volunteers to help?No
  • Plenty of drink stations?Yes

  • Post race activities? Good
  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: Always a great event, this is the largest local running event, good turnout with over 800 participants. Good course, great weather, excellent party afterward with jambalaya, free beer, and good musical entertainment. Seemed to be a lack of volunteers this year as a couple of water stations didn't have enough folks to be handing out the cups. Kind of a pain to have to grab one off the table while trying to maintain pace.

  • Comments: They could use more than 2 water stops. Thats my only complaint as we get spoiled with water stops every mile in tri's. I'm going to upload some pics of the chafing later, so be sure to check back for those. ;)

  • Comments: Always a great event, this is the largest local running event, a shame they can't get more than 600 participants in a community of 100,000 people with 1 million people living within an hour's drive. Good course, great weather, excellent party afterward with jambalaya, free beer, and Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys providing musical entertainment. Of course it was made more pleasurable that fellow BTers, Bill & Haley the Comet were rocking around the clock, or at least having good fun.

  • Comments: Always a great race, biggest in Lafayette. Ran it the first time on my 44th birthday, tomorrow I'll be 50, seventh straight year I've run this, wouldn't miss it if I could. Don't know why they changed the course, probably some conflict with ULL football, but they didn't improve it. Still well-organized, tons of volunteers, good food, band and party after.
