The Course: The run will start at the bottom of the hill near the big white barn in the parkway. Runners will head towards the Police Academy and pick up the tow path. Runners will then run on the path to the Robinhood Bridge before doing a quick turnaround across the bridge and heading towards the main entrance of the Parkway. Runners will then turnaround at the top of the hill near the main entrance and run the a mile through the main Lights in the Parkway display. Once runners reach the top of the hill near the exit - they will return down the hill using the service road and finish up at the same place the race started.
Parking: Parking will be available on the streets near the Parkway. All cars must park in one direction to avoid turning around. The priority for parking: Lehigh Parkway South (near the Mack Truck location), Grammes Road, Vultee Street. We ask the runners please keep moving and do not park until they are directed to do so. Parking is at a premium so the more cooperation the better.
