Race Day Parking
Parking in the downtown area within walking distance of the start and finish lines is plentiful. There are numerous free and paid parking garages and surface lots as well as free on-street parking downtown.

Always double-check signs before you park but most on-street metered spots are free of charge on Sundays.

If you plan on parking on the east side of Congress, take I-35 to Ceasar Chavez. If you plan on parking on the west side you can take MoPac to 5th & 6th Streets. You will not be able to cross Congress Ave by car.

Plan to arrive at least 45 – 30 minutes before your start time.
