Course & Timing

We're in North Georgia, and there's not much that anyone can call flat & fast.  So…yes, there are some "hills", but it's nothing crazy, and you'll be so busy having fun, that you won't even notice.  

The 5K course is a Peachtree Road Race qualifier. USATF certified. Course number: GA18039WC
