Old Spanish Fort to Jackson Square, New Orleans, LA
Presented by Jacobs
The 105th running of the Jackson Day 9K Race from Old Spanish Fort to Jackson Square was blessed with a crisp sunny day with no wind. National Park reenactors brandished muskets and posed for photos with the runners adding to the 1814 theme of the race. Close to 700 runners toed the line and listened as the Battle of New Orleans played and some sang along.
When the gun went off it was Andrew Barton, Brendan Minihan, Jr. and Sean Fitzwilliam running in a pack. After the two mile mark and on the downhill, Barton pulled away from the pack and led the race all the way to Jackson Square, finishing in a time of 29:47. Minihan was second in 30:13 and Fitzwilliam third in 30:32. In the women's race Megan Gubbins finished first in 35:58, second was Celeste Dolan in 36:38 and Mary Erin Imwalle finished third in 36:48.
The Louis deLassus Awards, given to the first male and female New Orleans Track Club members to finish, went to overall second place finishers Brendan Minihan, Jr. and Celeste Dolan. The Dr. Pat award (named after Dr. Patrick Hambrick), given to the first male masters finisher who is a New Orleans Track Club member, was won by Paul Thiels who finished eighth place overall.
The Steamboat Natchez dock provided the location for post-race refreshments and awards presentations. Thanks to our sponsors JACOBS ENGINEERING, US Risk Management, National Park Service, Southern Runner Sports, All American Chiropractic, Mizuno, Kentwood, Crescent Crown Distributing, Baker Maid and Monster Energy Drink.
