More details

Getting to the start

Winston-Salem Transit Authority (WSTA) routes 83/84/85 along Silas Creek Pkwy (Parkway Plaza Shopping Center stop) — roughly 1–1.5 mi from the venue; no WSTA route runs directly to Meadowlark Dr or the park entrance

Venue: Jamison Park, 285 Meadowlark Dr, Winston-Salem, NC 27106, a residential-area city park on the Muddy Creek Greenway. Nearest bus service requires an additional walk/rideshare from Silas Creek Pkwy; car or rideshare is the practical option.

Getting to the finish

Same as start — all distances (5K–marathon) are loop repeats finishing at Jamison Park

Same as start.

Start shuttle

No organizer shuttle identified.

Transit card

Winston-Salem's local bus system (WSTA) is paid with cash or a magnetic-stripe day pass rather than a modern tap card, and there is no contactless bank-card acceptance yet; single rides run about 1.50 USD. Most visitors coming for this race will still find a car or rideshare far more practical than the limited bus routes to reach the venue.
