Packet Pickup
With the Center Street Giant Pumpkin Festival load in happening at the same time as the race we have moved the Start/Finish Line to the parking lot behind Sol Speak Yoga. We think this is the best way to create a safer environment for all participants. The course is basically the same, just starting a couple hundred yards north.
Please do NOT park in the lot behind Sol Speak Yoga. The lot is closed to anyone but festival vendors. And there will be quite a bit of traffic with the vendors setting up for the festival. Please be aware of vehicles unloading around you. There is plenty of parking on 100 North and in the parking lot across the street from Sol Speak Yoga.
