Just an update- the course and the parking for this race changed in 2015. Now you park in the Fort Getty parking lots near the start/finish versus having to park in Newport and be bused over the bridge. Still, you should park as early as you can, and bring a flashlight if you can because the sun may not be up when you head to packet pickup. Although the start/finish and course did change slightly, it's still a very hilly course, and can get very humid when the sun comes up.
