Parking

All ramps on Saturday are FREE! Since our downtown supports Mayo Clinic, there is a PLETHORA of easily accessible parking ramps within a 5 minute walk of the Peace Plaza, making this one of the most easy and accessible packet pick-up and expo events for a Marathon.

Shirts

Shirts are given to all registered runners. We can only offer the sizes that you selected during registration. Shirt exchanges can be offered immediately post race if the shirt is not worn.

If the shirt is not picked up at the event, the event does not have the capacity to mail and create separate pickups for individuals, and therefore your shirt will be forfeit. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience.
