Parking
Balboa Park is located just minutes from downtown San Diego. The Race opening ceremonies begin at 7:30 a.m. way before the Park's peak times! But parking can still be a challenge. Consider taking public transportation. Here are some parking options:
Park inside the Park! Park in the Inspiration Point parking lot (on the east side of Park Blvd. between President's Way and the Balboa Park Activity Center) for easy access to the heart of Balboa Park.
Street parking. Street parking is free on Sundays - get there early to scout out the best spots.
Team Parking at Old Naval Hospital. Teams are welcome to park at the Old Naval Hospital at President's Way and Park Blvd. Shuttle buses will take you to and from the starting line. They begin at 6 a.m. and go every 15 minutes.
No matter what method you choose to come to the Race, we suggest you try the 511 service for the San Diego area (www.511sd.com) This is a free telephone (dial 511) and Web-based program that provides commuters with up-to-the-minute freeway drive times, transit routes and ridesharing information.
