Parking: Free parking vouchers will be provided to runners and volunteers by Cambridgeside Galleria.  Volunteers will park in the Cambridgeside Galleria parking garage.  The Galleria will have parking attendants and signs in place to direct you - so you will park "as directed" by Cambridge Side.  Please let our event manager know if you are parking so we can make sure we get you parking vouchers.
