Please allow extra time to find on-street parking. Due to race insurance requirements and the use of downtown streets, headphones and strollers are not allowed. The races start and finish on Langdon St. The street will be blocked off to traffic during the races.

The 10k runners will proceed to the turnaround on Junction Rd. The flat and fast 10k course is roughly half paved and half dirt road.
