Packet pickup & Parade Day planning

For 2026, advance pickup was held at Confluence Running in Johnson City on Friday, with race-day pickup outside the Broome County Public Library. Parade Day creates significant downtown traffic and parking demand, so participants should plan extra arrival time and use downtown garages or legal side-street parking when available.
