SPECTATOR SPOTS

You don’t have to be a runner to be part of the ATM experience! ATM runners appreciate the crowds of onlookers cheering them on and motivating them to give the race everything they’ve got! Bring your cowbells or noisemakers, carry a sign or just come out to watch along the streets throughout the course. Here are some of the best places to watch the race:

FINISH LINE/MILE 10: The number-one place to be a spectator! Watch ATM runners cross the finish line in the Pentagon North Lot. To get there, take the free event shuttle, presented by KBR. The shuttle will run continually between Pentagon North and Pentagon South Lots from 4 a.m.–1 p.m.

KEY BRIDGE: Runners will cross from Virginia (Rosslyn) into the District (Georgetown) by way of the Key Bridge, offering a picturesque view of the city’s waterfront. Get there by taking the Blue, Orange or Silver Metro line to the Rosslyn Metro Station.

INDEPENDENCE AVENUE, SW: There are many locations along this street to get a good view of the race. Afterward, head to the National Mall or a museum to continue your D.C. experience!

ARMY NAVY DRIVE AND EADS STREET (BEFORE MILE 9): This is where runners know they are nearing the finish line and are finding their second wind! From there, walk over to the Pentagon South Lot and catch the free event shuttle, presented by KBR, and head to the North Lot to enjoy the post-race activities.

NOTE: Read race rules section on page 13 for race course and Pentagon safety and security information. ProudSponsors ofthe ArmyTen-Miler
