Parking

First come, first served parking will be available to runners and spectators in the American Tobacco Campus North and South Parking Decks. Parking in the two decks listed below will be free on race morning.
 
  • North Parking Deck: 305 W. Pettigrew Street 
    • To access the North Parking Deck from Raleigh via Hwy 147, take Exit 3B onto Jackie Robinson Dr, turn right onto Roxboro St, and then left onto Pettigrew St. The North Parking Deck will be on your left.

 

  • South Parking Deck: 705 Willard Street
    • To access the South Parking Deck from Raleigh via Hwy 147, take Exit 3B onto Jackie Robinson Dr. The South Parking Deck will be on your right. PLEASE NOTE: This location historically fills up faster than the North Parking Deck, so wait times may be longer

 

These decks are less than a five minute walk from the start line. Due to the great parking location for this race, gear check will not be available.
 
We recommend all runners (both half marathoners and 5 milers) arrive by 7 AM.

Uber/Lyft Dropoff

We recommend runners to use ride-sharing apps for their transportation needs. Drop-off and pick-up locations will be announced closer to race day.
