Hotter Than Hell Marathon for RaceMD
The Hotter Than Hell Marathon NOLA is presented as a "TWILIGHT" overnight marathon held in the middle of the summer in New Orleans. The event is scheduled for July 5, 2026, and is listed with a race location at Lafreniere Park in Metairie. The format is described as an overnight or twilight marathon experience rather than a standard daytime road race.
The event benefits RaceMD, a nonprofit focused on Duchenne muscular dystrophy. RaceMD began with a mission to accelerate the search for DMD therapy and states that its work has evolved from research to rescue by funding therapies for current patients. This is a donation based race with no required entry fee; donations are noted as greatly appreciated. According to the event information, every dollar of donations goes directly to RaceMD, which uses funds to provide cell stem therapy to boys with DMD. The material provided states that this stem cell therapy shows evidence of life extension for patients. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
