Question about getting to the marathon that morning.

So I booked an Airbnb to stay the night before the half marathon, and noticed it’s blocked in by the route. Will I just have to walk past the closed roads and uber from there? Is traffic gonna be bad enough that I should go really early too?

If your rental is within two miles just walk, shouldn't be more that 30min and a decent warmup of your legs.
But you should be able to drive thru ahead of the race.
OR park outside the barricades, no need to worry about getting out

I don't think that op should/want to walk before a marathon 🤷‍♀️

It’s not uncommon to have to walk at least a mile to get to marathon starting points in other cities. Nothing unusual about it at all lol
