The Great Huey P. Long Bridge Run

Every May, a 5K foot race takes place the day before Mother's Day, in which runners (or walkers) cross the Mississippi River via the New Orleans Huey P. Long bridge to celebrate its widening. Join these folks as they traverse this iconic section of the city's skyline. The race starts on the Eastbank at the Clearview on-ramp and finishes on the Westbank between Highway 90 and the bridge. The post-race party, with live music and food, will be held there. To register for the race, visit hueyprun.com.
