Schedule

• 7:00am: Check-In Opens

With the holiday, all meters are free and there is quite a bit of street parking available along Lakeshore and Grand Ave. We strongly suggest carpooling and arriving early, so we’re able to close streets and start the race on time.

Are bikes, hoverboards, scooters, skateboards, push bikes, unicycles or wagons allowed on course?

No, due to safety concerns, only baby strollers/joggers and wheelchairs are allowed on the course. We ask those with baby strollers/joggers to stage toward the back of the start line chute and stay to the right to not impede faster participants.

Where do I register for Stomper’s Stomp Kids Event on race morning?

You can register your child starting at 7am at the Oakland Athletics tent.

Where are the restrooms?

Restrooms are located on the south corner of the Pergola Park festival area, along with hand washing stations.
