To prepare for the marathon, Metro announced all lines will be open at 5 a.m., with no scheduled track work slowing down trains. Rides will cost the normal weekend flat rate of $2.
There will also be some diverted bus routes around the Pentagon Bus Terminal and Rosslyn Bus Terminal on Saturday and Sunday. For more information on diverted routes and travel tips, check out WMATA’s website.
Kristen Loflin, a spokesperson with the MCM, recommends that runners take the Metro to the Pentagon station to access the Runners Village for the MCM and MCM50K, and the Smithsonian station to the MCM10K start line.
“With many road closures, taking Metro is the best way to get around, but consult the course map as most locations are walkable,” the MCM website said.
