...is an organization administered by runners and walkers to promote
roadrace events both as a competitive sport and as one of the best
athletic activities for achieving physical fitness.
The NOTC was founded in 1963 with the purpose of developing running
in the New Orleans metropolitan area. Since that time the club has
grown to over 2200 members including runners, walkers, and wheelchair
athletes. The NOTC is a member of the
Road Runners Club of America (RRCA)
(RRCA) and the
USA Track & Field Association.
A full schedule of running and walking events awaits you. From the
1/2 mile to the Mardi Gras
Marathon and the south's oldest roadrace, the Jackson Day Race held
since 1907. Events take place in a variety of locations that include
Audubon Park, City Park, Lakefront, Westbank, French Quarter, Downtown,
Metairie, Harahan, Kenner and many other areas... even the Bonnet Carre
Spillway! The NOTC New Orleans Grand
Prix Series consists of designated races each year in which members
compete for Grand Prix awards in divisions for Youth, Adult
Open/Master/Grandmaster/Senior and Race Walkers. A festive awards
ceremony is staged to present awards to division leaders.
The NOTC is a non-profit organization. Officers and members of the
Board of Directors are elected annually. Most of the work is performed
by club volunteers. In this way we maintain nominal entry fees to cover
costs at races.
All members receive a membership card and regular mailings of club race
forms, schedules, and other notices.
