TWO BIG CHANGES
1. PARKING ROUTES:
VIEW THE PARKING AND COURSE MAPS. Parking maps show the various routes you can take to the Domain depending on where you are coming from. Also shows parking available both for General and Handicap/Assigned Parking. *Be in control of your morning – don’t forget about the rolling start for untimed participants*. The general address for the Domain is 2900 Esperanza Crossing, Austin, TX 78759
2. ROLLING START TIMES:
ROLLING START FOR ALL UNTIMED PARTICIPANTS. The Timed 5K runners will begin at 7:30 am. Untimed participants (including the Family 1 milers) may begin the 5K run or walk anytime between 8:00 am and 10:00 am. At 10:00 am, the start line will close to ALL 5K runners and walkers. The rolling start time has been implemented in an attempt to ease parking and traffic and put Race participants in control of their day of celebration.

How does Austin's largest 5K race make an impact on the global movement to end breast cancer forever?
When you register for the Susan G. Komen Austin Race for the Cure®your registration fee mainly covers the cost of putting on the Race. Only 20% of Race participants raise funds each year, meaning 80% does not. Last year the average Race participant raised $179. This year if each of us would commit to a minimum of $125, which is the cost of a mammogram, Komen Austin would be able to give back more than $2.6 MILLION to local breast programs, and to research for the cures.
