PARKING--The DASH Lots 9 & 7 are located near the YMCA, along Seward Street and along Mt. Vernon. Come early and get a good spot. If you're staying at one of the downtown hotels, it's faster to walk than it is to drive and find a parking spot.
Showers--We have showers at the YMCA. If you want to get clean and dry and then come out for a bowl of chili afterwards, that's cool. Don't worry about getting kicked out of the food area, just wear your medal, we'll know it's you.
The VELOCITY CHALLENGED start is at 7:00. You'll need to pay special attention to course marshalls along Seward Street, as people starting at 8:00 will still be parking in DASH 9 lot. (And for those of you who are driving down Seward, PLEASE BE CAREFUL!!!)
CHILI and Ice Cream
Wendy's Chili. Just the thing on a cool fall morning (or afternoon) after a long run. Or, if you prefer, while you're still warm, we have Culver's frozen custard.
VISIT THE EXPO!
Yes, you can pick up your packet on race morning. Get there early. But...
Don't miss all the fun at the expo. Video from last year's race, 2:00 Race Director briefing & discussion. Lots of vendors with cool stuff. And, at 1:00, come out and see the kids run! They're amazing. They'll be running their final 1.2 to complete their 26.2 miles of running.
