Baton Rouge, LA

Running in Baton Rouge stays flat and fast—the St. Jude Walk/Run 5K and Summer Series Hump Day 2 Milers draw regular crowds, with most routes hugging the Mississippi riverfront or looping through City Park. Cyclists find their challenge in distance rather than elevation; the Blessing of the Bikes and Runners route stretches over 25km through the surrounding parishes, and serious riders push north toward Livingston Parish for sustained touring on quiet two-lane roads. The heat and humidity are constant factors from April through October, so early morning and evening efforts are the local standard.
