STC Boilermaker Bus 2026

The STC Boilermaker Bus offers a coach ride organized by the Syracuse Track Club for runners traveling from Syracuse to the Boilermaker 15K in Utica. Departure is early from 340 Montgomery Street, outside the downtown YMCA, with a capacity of 55 seats. The arrangement is straightforward: travel to the start instead of driving, store your food, drinks, clothing, and valuables on the bus, and have it accessible before the race. After dropping participants at the start, the bus waits until shortly before the race begins, then relocates to the finish area for the return journey from Utica. A change of clothes and preferred snacks will be available post-race, contributing to a club outing feel rather than mere transportation. The trip also provides STC members and other runners an opportunity to socialize, connect with others, and add to the Boilermaker post-race narratives the club enjoys sharing.
