Metrorail will open early, at 5 a.m., Sunday, September 12, 2021, for the Cherry Blossom Ten Mile Run, providing an easy, convenient way for runners and spectators to get to the race.
The two hour early opening, approved by Metro's Board of Directors, supports the region's pandemic recovery and waives the normal fees paid by event organizers for the added service.

Customers are also advised of scheduled construction on the Red Line for the Rockville Canopy Replacement Project:
Before heading to the race, Metro encourages riders to purchase fare ahead of time. The best option to avoid lines, is SmarTrip mobile pay. Download the SmarTrip app for iOS or Android to transfer an existing SmarTrip card or purchase a new one with enough round-trip value for you and all your travelers.
