2013 Amedisys Mardi Gras Mambo Race Recap



On February 16, 2013 the Baton Rouge Area Sports Foundation, along with our race partner Club South Runners, hosted the 15th Annual Amedisys Mardi Gras Mambo 10k and 1 Mile Fun Run at the Belle of Baton Rouge Atrium in downtown Baton Rouge. And for the second year in a row, the race set a new record for runners registered. Nearly 1,800 runners registered for the 2013 Mambo, exceeding last year's record!

Cool but sunny weather early in the morning was ideal for our 10k course and although a strong North wind greeted runners on the way home on the Mississippi River levee, strong times were turned in by the field of 1,800 runners who hailed from 22 states. The spirit of Mardi Gras was definitely in full swing as participants “mamboed” their way through the traditional Mambo race course, winding down Nicholson Drive, through LSU and atop the Mississippi River levee back to the cozy confines of the Atrium.

Lake Charles resident Alan Foolkes won the 15th Annual Amedisys Mardi Gras Mambo 10k title with a time of 33:09. Foolkes finished third in the 2012 Mardi Gras Mambo. The overall female winner was Rachel Booth of Mandeville, LA, who crossed the finish line at 36:08. Our Male Masters winner was a repeat winner from 2012 as Brian Lee of Baton Rouge ran a strong time of 39:25. Our female Masters winner was Jessica Palermo of Geismar (40:21). Baton Rouge resident Helena Chan (45:46) took home the female Grandmasters title, while Robert Duncan of Baton Rouge took the male Grandmasters in a time of 41:42.
