Pro tips

Flat Course Pacing
The course is described as fast and flat. Pick your goal pace and stick to it; the loop layout means you'll pass the start/finish mid-race, which can help you reset mentally.

Loop Layout Parking
Because it's a loop starting and finishing at Toyota Music Factory, you only need to park once. Leave a dry change of clothes and warm layers in your car for after the race.
