Parking will be available near the start/finish line at the Morgan County Fairgrounds. Please park in designated areas and follow parking volunteers instructions. Please carpool if possible as parking space is limited. Traffic in and out of the venue will be limited as to not obstruct runners on the course.
Your packet pickup bag is also your Clothing drop bag. However, YOU MAY USE YOUR OWN BAG, BACKPACK, ETC. There will be a designated drop area at the start line. We will take all the bags that are in the drop area to the finish-area. We cannot guarantee the safety/security of your gear bags. The smart thing to do is leave items you don't need in your car, as parking is close to the start/finish area.
