Get Ready for Race Day!
Brenham is a town of 18,000 people and we are expecting 5,000 runners. Many of you will be bringing family or friends who are non-participants. For about six hours, Brenham’s population will increase by more than half. Please think of it like the airport — plan head and be early.
All parking will be at the Washington County Fairgrounds. There are two entrances. Our baseball team will guide you into the lot. Please view the Parking Map in the RACE DAY INFO menu above.
Shuttle buses will pick up in three spots in the parking area. If you want to skip the shuttle, Brenham High School is only about 200 yards away from the parking lots.

You can pick up your bib, pins and medal at the packet pick-up. From there, you will move to the t-shirt station to get your shirt. If you are in the half-marathon, you will get two medals and two t-shirts.
