Ruston, LA
Entry is $25 now and rises to $30 after Aug 31, 2026, so registering before then saves $5.
The course runs through the campus of Louisiana Tech, so expect a mix of paved paths and open grounds with academic buildings on all sides. It is a homecoming weekend race, which means there are students and alumni around, and the atmosphere after the finish includes student organizations set up to talk about their research and programs.
