Same Great Race, New Date!

The race will begin and end at Maynard Jackson High School and take participants along the Atlanta BeltLine, offering a fun and scenic course for runners of all experience levels.

We also offer a Kids Fun Run for children ages 10 and under, making this a great event for the whole family.
