Parking & Transportation

Satellite Parking & Shuttles

This is a point-to-point race. Please try to carpool and arrive EARLY! All parking spaces are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Please do not park on the sides of the roads, as this will create gridlock for everyone else trying to get to the race. Three satellite parking locations are available for the convenience of runners and spectators, and shuttle buses will transport runners to the start on race morning (6:00am – 7:15am).  At the end of the race, shuttle buses will transport RUNNERS AND SPECTATORS back to the Sprague Fields Start Area lots or Satellite Parking locations (see below) to retrieve your car. Shuttle buses will operate from 9:00am – 11:00am. You MUST leave by 11:00am to catch a shuttle back to the parking lots. There are no shuttles from the Start line to the Finish line.

There is no parking for runners at the finish at Fort Williams. Fort Williams parking is restricted to sponsors, press, volunteers, staff, and a limited number of spectators. Some of you may want to be dropped off at the start by a family member or friend who will then want to park at Fort Williams. This is possible only if they arrive at Fort Williams prior to 7:30am and if spectator parking is still available. No parking after 7:30am.

Please check back as this information may change closer to race date.
