The start of the 2010 marathon

The Mardi Gras Marathon is a marathon that has been running in New Orleans since 1965 . It got its name because of the proximity to the Mardi Gras celebrations. The program also includes a half marathon .

history

In 2009 the traditional event , which was previously hosted by the New Orleans Track Club (NOTC), was taken over by the Competitor Group and integrated into their rock 'n' roll marathon series.

At the premiere of the event now officially known as the Rock 'n' Roll Mardi Gras Marathon , Berhane Adere ran the fastest half marathon time on US soil with 1:07:52 h and beat Kimberley Smith , who set a New Zealand record three seconds. Martin Kiptoo Lel prevailed against marathon Olympic champion Samuel Kamau Wanjiru in the men's race . In 2011, Kimberley Smith brought the US All-Comers record, which Meseret Defar had improved in the Philadelphia Half Marathon , back to New Orleans in 1:07:36 h .
