Our walk route is 3 miles in distance, which is 3 laps in, around and through the stadium. You can make one lap or three, it is up to you. This year, you will still have the opportunity to walk on the warning track inside the stadium, but no one will be allowed on the concourse. Don’t forget to bring your sunblock and a hat.
