Hey Runners! Thanks for your patience as we ironed out the last minute details for this run! On race morning, we will meet at Piedmont Park in the Greystone/Bathhouse area next to the Aquatic area. This is in the center of the park. Paid parking is available in the Piedmont Park parking area off of Monroe Ave. There is free parking in the neighborhood surrounding the park, but please obey the parking signs as we would hate for any of you to get a ticket. We have not received course maps yet from the race director. One we do we will post them here! Thank you and see you on race day!
