About the Bay Saint Louis Run+SUP
The course runs out and back along the beach sidewalk, then transitions directly to a stand-up paddleboard leg that heads out parallel to the shoreline before looping back. You can race solo, doing both the run and the paddle yourself, or split duties with a partner on a relay team. Boards are not provided, but a local rental shop will arrange delivery to the start.
Packet pickup the evening before is at a beer garden on Blaize Avenue, with a second window on race morning at the Washington Street Pavilion start line. Post-race, there are snowballs, food, beer, and nonalcoholic drinks at the finish, with a DJ running beach-friendly music through the whole morning.

The Bay Saint Louis Run+SUP has been held every year since at least 2023. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 25, 2026.
