First Run and Bike on New Champlain Parkway

The Champlain Parkway, a 60-year dream, is finally opening—and you’ve got one last chance to experience it firsthand. This Sunday, over 400 runners will race a mile on the brand-new road before cars take over Monday. With staggered starts based on pace, it’s a one-of-a-kind event—and once traffic hits, it’s nearly impossible to shut it down again. Miss the race? No problem: Local Motion is hosting a community bike ride afterward, the first and last time bikes will roll on this highway-style stretch. It’s a fleeting, unforgettable moment for Vermonters to celebrate a monumental road before it becomes just another highway. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
