FMOL Health Our Lady of the Lake Tiger 10K returns to Race into Death Valley

April 16, 2026

Sold Out crowd of over 6500 caps an exciting Spring season

Baton Rouge, LA /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – The FMOL Health Our Lady of the Lake Tiger 10K returns to LSU’s campus on April 19, 2026, bringing thousands of runners back to Baton Rouge for one of the most unique finish-line experiences in the country — inside Tiger Stadium.

Now in its 8th year, the Tiger 10K has once again captured national attention, drawing participants from across the United States and beyond. The 2026 event has officially sold out both the 10K and 5K distances, with fewer than 100 spots remaining in the Lamar Tiger Kids Mile.

The race offers participants a one-of-a-kind opportunity to run through the heart of LSU’s campus before finishing on the iconic 50-yard line of Tiger Stadium, complete with the unforgettable “WIN” bar slap.

The Tiger 10K course converges with the 5K along West Lakeshore Drive, guiding runners past some of LSU’s most recognizable landmarks, including Sorority Row, the LSU Law Center, the Student Union, the Parade Grounds, and the Bell Tower. The final stretch down Powerhouse Lane delivers a true game-day moment as runners enter Death Valley to a stadium finish unlike any other.

In addition to the sold-out 10K and 5K, the Lamar Tiger Kids Mile (ages 3–12) gives young runners their own chance to experience the excitement of race day in a fun and encouraging environment.

Following the race, participants and spectators will gather in Lot 401 for a high-energy post-race celebration featuring live music, cold beer, and local food — creating a tailgate atmosphere that extends the LSU game-day experience beyond the finish line.

“The Tiger 10K has quickly become one of the most anticipated events on the spring racing calendar,” said Mike Wattigny, Marketing Director of FRESHJUNKIE Racing. “To see both the 10K and 5K sell out again speaks to the incredible experience of running through LSU’s campus and finishing inside Tiger Stadium. There’s nothing like that moment when you enter Death Valley — it gives every runner a chance to feel like a Tiger.”
