Race Day
DO YOU LIMIT THE NUMBER OF RUNNERS IN EACH RACE?
The 10K, 15K & 1 Mile Fun Run are not capped at this time.
WILL YOU HAVE PACERS?
There are no pacers for the Mardi Gras Mambo. Runners will self-seed in corrals based on their anticipated finish time. Corrals with pace signs will be marked in the start chute. The faster runners will be in the front, the slower runners will be in the back.
CAN I HAVE CELL PHONES, FRIENDS, STROLLERS, DOGS ON THE COURSE?
We encourage you to invite friends and family to cheer you on along the course, but they are only allowed to run with you if they are registered runners. Per USA Track & Field rules, elements that could impede the safety of runners, such as bikes, skates, skateboards, strollers and pets on the course, are not allowed. The safety of our runners is our number one priority. By signing or clicking ’I Accept’ on any Mardi Gras Mambo registration race waiver, you are agreeing to abide by the Rules of Competition.
CAN I WEAR HEADPHONES?
Yes, music devices with headphones are permitted to use on the course; however, participants must be alert to their surroundings at all times and must pay attention to important announcements made at the start and along the course.
IS THERE A PLACE TO DROP BAGS AT THE START LINE?
Yes. We will have a Gear Check drop point near the Packet Pickup area race morning. Please make sure your gear is secured in a bag and marked CLEARLY with your bib number.
WHAT IF I LOSE SOMETHING THE DAY OF THE RACE?
Lost & Found is located near the awards area. After the event, please contact info@runmambo.com to see if items were turned in. Clothing items left in the start areas and along the course are immediately donated to charity and are not kept in Lost & Found.
