Detours / Road Closures: On the first Sunday in May, roughly 2500 athletes will be visiting our city. Over the course of 3 hours they will be racing throughout our community as they complete the 10-mile run. We ask for your cooperation and understanding on race day as you travel around town. The routes were chosen to highlight the various areas that we feel fully showcase the unique setting of Central New York. We appreciate your support and ask that you proceed with caution and allow for additional travel time to your destination.
