Definitely within walking distance IMO, it's like 7 blocks maybe?  BUT, you could always take a cab and it's only 7 bucks I think anywhere within the Downtown Business District.

Yep, you are not very far away.  The expo and the start/finish are at the GRB convention Center.  You are less than a mile probably.
