Take Metro!

• 5K: Metrorail opens at 7:00 A.M. on Saturday. This makes taking Metro an option for getting to the 5K on Saturday since the 5K does not start until 9:15 A.M. Make sure you get on an early train, particularly if travelling from the more outlying stations. The closest stops to the 5K staging area on Freedom Plaza are Metro Center (Red, Orange, Blue and Silver lines) and Federal Triangle (Orange, Blue and Silver Lines).
• 10 Mile: Metrorail usually opens too late on Sundays to get to the 10 Mile race start. If that does not change, you will need to find an alternative way to get to the race on Sunday, April 6. Metro will be open so that you can take it to return home after the race. The closest Metrorail Station to the finish line is Smithsonian Station on the Blue, Orange, and Silver lines. Customers should also consider using Federal Triangle nearby, which is also on the Blue, Orange, and Silver lines, or L’Enfant Plaza on the Green and Yellow lines just a short walk away.
