Known as the Hub City to locals, the southern Louisiana town of Lafayette plays host to the Zydeco Marathon & Half Marathon, taking place in March each year. Lafayette is world reknown for its rich heritage, awesome cajun food, and, of course, Zydeco music. Zydeco Marathon combines a fun, safe, and memorable run with our Finish Line Festival, bringing all that Lafayette is known for straight to you after your run. Zydeco Marathon & 1/2 is a USATF sanctioned event on a certified course. We are a Boston Qualifier.
