Ground Travel

Getting there by light rail: The event hotel van will take you to the light rail stop at the Mall of America, or you can walk there yourself. The Mall of America is the end of the line, so there is only one way to go. Get off the light rail at Lake Street. Go west on Lake Street, away from Hiawatha Ave (the street the light rail parallels) for about 10 blocks to 13th Ave S. Turn right onto 13th Ave S. and slightly more than one block north is the trail entrance and the start/finish line.

Getting there by car: Just west of the event hotel is MN-77. Turn right onto MN-77 going north. Bear right onto Cedar Ave S (you are still going north). Turn left (west) when you get to E. Lake St. Go about 7 blocks to 13th Ave S. Turn right onto 13th Ave S. and slightly more than one block north is the trail entrance and the start/finish line. Park on the streets. There is an entrance to the course at the corner of 13th Ave S and E 29th St. in Minneapolis.
