Rock 'n' Roll marathon brings runners, street closures to New Orleans

With both a marathon and half-marathon on Sunday, drivers can expect traffic and street closures all day

NEW ORLEANS — The annual Humana Rock 'n' Roll marathon series is once again making noise in the city this weekend. 

The series kicked off on Saturday at 8 a.m. with a 5k through the French Quarter and Center Business District. A 10k race is set to kick-off Sunday's events at 7 a.m., with a half-marathon and marathon starting shortly after. 

With races all day and runners from around the region in town for the occasion, drivers should expect delays from traffic and street closures around the courses.

The race stretches across the city, from Audubon Park all the way to the lakefront. 

Streets being used for the courses will remain closed until the last runner finishes.
