On Saturday, Feb 3, 2024, Orlando will welcome the nation's elite male and female long-distance runners to compete at the 2024 U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Marathon for the chance to represent Team USA at the Olympic Games Paris 2024, as a result there will be road closures and diversions throughout the area.

This weekend, Downtown Orlando will host America’s best male and female runners for the 2024 U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Marathon on Saturday, February 3, 2024, at 10 am. The course runs through downtown Orlando and its surrounding neighborhoods and consists of one 2.2-mile loop and three 8-mile loops
Over the last several months, the City of Orlando and event partners have been gearing up to host the U.S. Olympic Team Trials in downtown Orlando, and part of this effort has included providing information related to the event that may impact traffic patterns, pedestrian movement, detours and parking for both those attending and not attending.

In advance of Saturday’s race, the city wants to remind the community of those potential transportation impacts and how to contact the city before, during or after the race with any questions or concerns.
