The race staging area is located in the Chickamauga & Chattanooga National Military Park (the Park) located a few miles south of Chattanooga. Allow at least 35 minutes from downtown Chattanooga to travel to the Park. Event signage with directional arrows to event Parking will be located on the roadside in the Park.
