For 5th ave this Saturday: Looking for a little transit advice. Arriving at Penn Station, E-Train to Lex, 6 train to 77. 2 questions: are my trains correct? How long from Penn Station to Start. Thanks for all replies.

you're correct, but watch out for service changes. the E may or may not be running on Sat/Sun. you can check online. in case it is not running you can walk over to lex/33rd and take the 6 to 77th. Give yourself an hour. could take only 20mins though.
i'd do it differently bc the E is not reliable. leave penn station, walk one block east to 6th ave. take N/R/W towards Queens. get off at 59th st/lexington ave. take 6 train uptown to 77th
i'd also consider taking the 1/9 from penn station to 79th street, leaving station and taking cross town bus to 5th ave start.
I'd hop in a cab right outside of Penn Station and be at the start line in less than 10 minutes. It would cost about $7.
That's the winning answer! Thanks guys.

Don't forget to pick up a 6" Meatball for the race. Eat fresh!
I"d go "C" uptown to 86th Street and take the bus through the Park. Or, warm up across the Park.
