New Orleans Marathon Pace Calculator & Race Plan

The New Orleans Marathon is pancake flat at about 96 feet of total gain, running through City Park and along Lakeshore Drive by Lake Pontchartrain. The course is a double loop, so you will see the same terrain twice. The challenge here is not elevation but humidity.

November in New Orleans can still be warm and humid. Even at 65 degrees, the Gulf moisture makes it feel harder than the same temperature in a dry climate. Our splits account for the heat stress and dew point conditions on race day.
