Race Packet Pickup
Although packet pickup is available on race day, it is strongly recommended that packets be picked up BEFORE race day. The Anna's Grace Expo and Packet Pick Up powered by our friends at Assurance Financial will take place on Saturday, March 25th at The Belle of Baton Rouge, 103 France Street, from 9am until 5pm. Pick up your packet and be sure to also visit Mistletoe Market which will also be taking place at The Belle. A portion of the door proceeds to the Market will be donated to Anna's Grace Foundation, so you can shop for the 1 in 4 on race weekend too!
The Courses
Both the 1 Mile Fun Run and the Quarter Marathon start and end at the Belle of Baton Rouge. The 1 Mile Fun Run will run a half-mile out on River Road where it will turn around and head back to the finish line.
The Quarter Marathon heads out on River Road for a couple miles until it turns left onto Gourrier toward Alex Box Stadium. You’ll do a lap in the Alex Box parking lot before heading back out to River Road. You’ll take a right onto River Road and head back to the start/finish line.
Course Memorial Signs
Our Course Memorial Signs will line each race route in honor of the little ones we have lost. They are a powerful reminder of our mission and WHY we are running. For more information on ordering signs, please visit www.annasgrace.org.
Post-Race Festivities
After the race, let’s hang out a bit. You’ve earned some food and drink (yes, this includes adult drinks), and we’ve got plenty of it for you. So, please help yourself.
Awards will be given in the following categories:
- Quarter Marathon: Overall Male/Female; Top 3 Male/Female Finishers in age groups 9 & under, 10-14, 15-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70+
- One Mile: Top 3 finishers in age groups 5 & under, 6-9, 10-12, and 13-14.
Immediately following awards, we will remember our babies in a special way with a Remembrance Celebration featuring a balloon release. Make plans to stick around to show your support of the 1 in 4 as we pay tribute to our little ones who were gone too soon.
