Our registration tables will be set up either outside near the finish line or inside at the Browntown Community Center, depending on the weather on race day. (Bathroom access, as always, will be at the Community Center.)

Our parking options are somewhat limited by the small size of Browntown, but we will have a few specific areas designated for parking on race day (shown on the map of Browntown at lower right). As we did last year, we'll place yellow "PARKING" signs in front of these areas, and we'll have a couple intrepid volunteers directing you as to where to park. Your cooperation with our parking volunteers will be greatly appreciated! (We'll also have a few "NO PARKING" signs placed in certain spots, so that nobody parks where they're not supposed to-- particularly at the Browntown Community Center or on the small patch of land across the road from the Baptist Church.)

Take I-81 south to exit 300 (left exit) and get on I-66 eastbound. In 6.5 miles, take exit 6 (Front Royal, Routes 340/522), bear right off the exit ramp, and follow Route 340 south into Front Royal. In 1.8 miles, turn left at a stoplight (onto W. 14th St.) to continue following Route 340 southbound. In 0.2 miles, the road will curve sharply to the right and become Royal Avenue (still Route 340!). Get in the right lane, and in 0.4 miles, continue straight through a stoplight to stay on Royal Avenue/Route 340. Keep going straight for another 1.8 miles through Front Royal, eventually leaving town and passing the entrance to Shenandoah National Park & Skyline Drive. Take the next left (about a quarter mile past Skyline Drive, at a new stoplight) onto Route 649 (Browntown Road), and follow Route 649 for 7.6 miles to Browntown.

Follow Route 340 south towards Front Royal. After going about 11 miles beyond Berryville, turn left at a stoplight at Double Tollgate (across from Dinosaur Land) to continue following Route 340 south. In 7½ miles, you'll pass under I-66. 1.9 miles beyond that, turn left at a stoplight (onto W. 14th St.) to continue following Route 340 southbound. In 0.2 miles, the road will curve sharply to the right and become Royal Avenue (still Route 340!). Get in the right lane, and in 0.4 miles, continue straight through a stoplight to stay on Royal Avenue/Route 340. Keep going straight for another 1.8 miles through Front Royal, eventually leaving town and passing the entrance to Shenandoah National Park & Skyline Drive.

Take Route 7 west towards Winchester. Exit at Berryville to follow Route 340 south, then follow the "From Berryville" directions above.

Follow I-66 west to exit 13 (Linden, Routes 79/55). At the bottom of the exit ramp, turn left, then at the stoplight in 0.2 miles, turn right onto Route 55. Follow Route 55 for 5.3 miles into Front Royal (past K-Mart, Burger King, McDonald's, etc.). Eventually Route 55 comes to a "T" intersection at Route 340 (there'll be a Shell station on the right). Turn left at the stoplight onto Route 340 and follow it for about half a mile. After passing the entrance to Shenandoah National Park & Skyline Drive, take the next left (at a new stoplight) onto Route 649 (Browntown Road). Follow Route 649 for 7.6 miles to Browntown.

Head north on Route 340 for about 14½ miles to Bentonville, and turn right onto Route 613 (Bentonville-Browntown Road). Follow Route 613 for 5.6 miles to Browntown, where the road comes to a "T" intersection at Route 649 (Browntown Road), just past O.J. Rudacille's store. The Baptist Church parking lot will be directly in front of you, or you can turn left to park in the smaller lot on the right-hand side (a couple hundred feet after the turn).

Take I-81 to exit 264 (New Market, Route 211) and follow Route 211 east for 14.6 miles. About two miles beyond Luray Caverns, exit off of the Route 211 bypass onto Route 340 north.

From Culpeper, follow Route 522 north to Sperryville. From Sperryville, continue north on Route 522 for 8.1 miles, then turn left at Massies Corner to keep heading north on Route 522 towards Front Royal for another 14½ miles. Upon reaching Front Royal, turn left at a stoplight onto Route 55 west (there's a KFC on the near right corner). Follow Route 55 for 0.6 miles to a "T" intersection and turn left at the stoplight onto Route 340 south. After passing the entrance to Shenandoah National Park & Skyline Drive in about half a mile, take the next left (at a new stoplight) onto Route 649 (Browntown Road). Follow Route 649 for 7.6 miles to Browntown.

(Disclaimer: The mileages and drive times listed above are rough estimates. Your results may-- and probably will-- vary! We've tried to err on the conservative side with the drive times. If you spot any glaringly bad estimates, let us know via e-mail.)

There's now a stoplight at the intersection of Route 340 and Route 649 (Browntown Road), placed there because the newly-opened Skyline High School is on the west side of that intersection.

If you're coming to the race through Front Royal, please be aware that the town has recently (and inexplicably) lowered the speed limits down to 25 miles per hour on a number of the town's main arteries. While I haven't seen these unrealistic new speed limits being strictly enforced by the local police just yet, you may want to be extra mindful anyway.

And there's been a good bit of construction going on in the vicinity of the Shenandoah River bridges on on Routes 340/522 (between I-66 exit 6 and Front Royal), so use caution if you'll be driving through that area. (I've seen a few fender-benders in that area in recent days.)
