    Local Accommodations:
    If you are wanting to book a hotel for your visit, anything on Martin Luther King Blvd. would be a 10-15 minute drive to the race site & all of them are well kept to my knowledge. They are also scattered among many restaurant & shopping option.  The Courtyard by Marriott & the Howard Johnson are not along MLK, but are a 5-10 minute drive to the race site. 
     

For the love of all that is good and moisture wicking...

Though we try to be accurate and on top of things... Race details can change when we aren't lookin. And once in a while we simply make a mistake.

ALWAYS visit the race's website for the most complete and accurate race information.
