RACE DAY PARKING:
Parking is available around the pickleball courts, deck hockey rink, and the baseball fields as you enter the Park. If you park towards the back of the Park, or along the soccer fields, you will be restricted from departing until our participants have crossed the street at the bridge (near the fishing pond/Scout Memorial) to ensure their safety. That should be about 10am, so if you need to leave before then (we understand its Thanksgiving), park closer to the front of the Park or near the pickleball courts.
Parking starts across from the shops on Graham Park Drive/behind WesBanco, but it is a 1.5-mile walk back to the Start/Finish line.
Please do not park on any grassy areas.
RESTROOMS:
We will have a couple of portable toilets near the start/finish line for our participants.
The restroom building next to the pickleball courts will also be available that morning. No other restrooms within the Park will be open due to it being off-season for those other fields.
Medals and a $50 gift card to Pro Bike + Run (North Park) will be given to each of the Top 3 Overall Male & Female 5K Runners!
