Monument Avenue 10K road closings
We love the 10K! We hate the traffic! Adding 41,000 racers plus tens of thousands of spectators to the streets of the Fan doesn’t really make for the easiest commute. So beware travelers! Harken to these road closings.

So, what you’re telling me is I need to sleep until 2:30 to avoid this mess.
FYI, Opening Day activities for Richmond Little League will be taking place at the Byrd Park fields from 9:30 on, with the main ceremony at 1:00pm, so that’ll be a zoo, too.
