Ever been to New Orleans or Louisiana? First time for me, and on this shorter episode, I break down what it was like running the Louisiana Marathon in Baton Rouge...plus all the sights, music, and food in New Orleans before and after the race. You'll hear some of those bands too on the pod. Make sure to subscribe to "Run The Race" for more inspiring, fun talk on fitness and faith!

It was a marathon in state #26 for me, my 3rd fastest 26.2 mile race so far, in almost 8 years of running races this distance. After running through local neighborhoods and LSU, the gumbo and jamabalya at the epic finish line festival were delicious too! There's other seafood to talk about too, along with the awesome and hip Frenchman Street in New Orleans - which I liked better than the rowdier Bourbon Street in the French Quarter where I stayed. To God be the glory for finishing another race, plus safe travels there and back.
