I did about as good as I could have given I’m not used to heat and humidity (80 degrees & 70%) and spent the previous 3 days being a tourist. We had about a 10 minute delayed start which was no big deal. Plenty of water stops. There is a mini loop in the course which was not confusing at all. Great views of the water the entire time almost. Awesome live band and bottomless post race beer. Friendly people-met several new friends. Medals were nice, & I got a bonus one for placing third in my age group.
Good race
Not in downtown New Orleans, but along the lake. Pretty morning views! Mostly flat, but have to go up some ramps and it is out and back in two directions. MORE

Pre-Race: It was difficult to get some information ahead of time and some unclear communication. I remember reading that we would be placed in corrals based on our predicted finish times. I couldn’t find where I’d reported that info and asked about corrals at bib pick-up. No one knew what I was talking about, we all started together.
Race: hot! one big bridge for the out-and-back course. saw some Nola sights: streetcar, superdome, and the finish was exciting rounding the corned by the superdome.
