Cajun Country Run Half Marathon
Cajun Country Run Half Marathon is a half marathon held in Lafayette, US, in December.
The event is based at Acadiana Park and bills itself as the oldest half marathon in the Acadiana region. The half marathon is a single loop on the road. Shorter options sit alongside it, including a 10K, a 5K and a one mile fun run, and the 10K and 5K can be run on either road or trail.
The trail versions head onto cross country and single track sections beside the Vermilion River, where the terrain is more technical than on the road courses. Proceeds support the park's conservation work, and top finishers receive handmade alligator head trophies.
