About the Clovis Rudolph Run
The race starts and finishes on the north side of a university campus on Clovis Avenue, with a decorated course that winds through the area. It has a holiday costume contest and a hot cocoa bar waiting at the finish, which gives the morning a distinctly festive-without-being-frantic feel.
Packet pickup runs the evening before at a bike shop in Fresno, with a second window on race morning at the start venue itself. The start area is on the north end of campus, just off the main avenue, so parking and orientation are fairly straightforward once you know to look there.
