Thanks jmasgat! We’re running the Dopey Challenge this year. We took buses from AKL when we ran the Princess Fairy Tale Challenge, but that was because we didn’t have a car on that trip. Since a) we have our car with us this trip, b) POFQ is pretty close to EP and c) there’s just a wee bit of virus concern on the buses, we were wondering if taking a car was even a real option. When people post here that you need to arrive early if you drive, with a race start of 5:00, what time would folks suggest we leave POFQ to be at the parking lot ‘early‘?
I've typically driven myself from Boardwalk over to both the half and the full, and I leave Boardwalk around 3:30. Now, the traffic from POFQ is going to add some time there, and I don't know if it's 30 minutes or 10 minutes, but I can say, with the exception of one year, I've always been there within 30 minutes, giving me plenty of time to relax, stay cool/warm, etc., before heading to the corrals.
With the races starting 30 minutes earlier, I'd probably be shooting for 2:45-3 am Boardwalk departure this year.
