About the race
Tour des Atakapas is the official Run and Duathlon event associated with Festivals Acadiens et Créoles in Lafayette, Louisiana. It offers 6K and 9K running options and a Run/Paddle/Run Duathlon with solo or tandem boat divisions. The duathlon consists of a 1.5‑mile run, a 2‑mile paddle, and a final 1.5‑mile run.
Celebrating Cajun and Creole heritage, the race raises funds for parks and recreational facilities through TRAIL in partnership with Festivals Acadiens et Creoles. Runners compete around Lafayette’s festival venues, with pre-race sites near Geaux Run in the Oil Center and a post-race setup at Girard Park, and kayak/canoe rentals available.
