🚦 STARTING LINE

 The Start/Finish line is located in the Lincoln Park shelter parking lot. This area will be barricaded off, so all participants must park in the Nelson Center lot or other lots around the park. There will be signs directing participants to the start. It will be easy to find! Look for the large START/FINISH arch. Runners will head right down the hill at the beginning of the course. 5K participants should line up toward the front, and walkers will start toward the back. Make sure to be at the start by 8:15 AM to hear announcements and warm up!
