The AJC Peachtree Road Race is more than a race; it’s a celebration of community, determination, and the spirit of Atlanta. For over half a century, it has brought people from all walks of life together to spend Independence Day in a one-of-a-kind running and walking tradition. The 6.2-mile course takes participants from the streets of Buckhead through Midtown, finishing in Atlanta’s Piedmont Park.
Note: Race weekend may bring high temperatures. Please consult with your doctor to make sure you have a plan to exercise safely in the heat.
