About the ABQ MUSEUM DASH
The race starts and finishes in front of the Albuquerque Museum, right next to Tiguex Park in Old Town. The course runs through the surrounding streets, so the setting is dense with history and within sight of several other cultural institutions. The timed option covers a longer distance, while a shorter walk and a kids' course round out the morning.
The day before, a local running store hosts packet pickup for a few hours in the afternoon. Out-of-town participants can collect their packet race morning at the registration tent on the northwest side of Tiguex Park. The museum parking lot is available, though several surrounding streets are closed for the course, so check the no-park list before you choose a spot.
