Total Chaos (West Monroe, LA)
Total Chaos is a timed loop event at Lazarre Park in West Monroe, Louisiana, organized by BTR. The event runs multiple time formats on a 2 mile loop that gains about 19 ft per circuit. The park course follows grass, tree-lined river bottomland and paved sections that share park roads along the Ouachita River.
Choose from these timed formats:
- 9 hours
- 15 hours
- 27 hours
- Midnight 9 hours
The event schedule includes periodic changes in course direction every two hours. The race program mixes competition with social elements: 90s trivia, game-themed challenges, costume opportunities, designated time-slot activities, crew station competitions, Mania Hour contests that award a prize to the person with the most miles in that hour, and additional prize opportunities based on multiple wins across the event.
Support and provisioning include an unmanned aid station about halfway around the loop at the campground, stocked with water, ice, Tailwind Sports Drink, and snacks. Food offerings available throughout the event include hot and cold options with vegan or vegetarian choices, assorted snacks, coffee, water, and pickle juice. Participant items include a BTR dri-fit shirt, a commemorative mug, a BTR fanny pack, and a reusable speed cup. Finishers receive custom medals by Richter's Design; a 100-mile finisher buckle and top finisher awards are part of the prize structure. Registration opens Fri. Nov 13, 2026 at 12:00 AM CT.
