    ![Parkinson's Champions runners](/sites/default/files/styles/no_sizing/public/images/Run4PD-Champions-Runners_1.png?itok=F0cKt2_h)  The Parkinson's Foundation is an official charity partner for the 2026 AJC Peachtree Road Race. By signing up to run as a Parkinson's Champion, you commit to raising funds and awareness for the Parkinson's Foundation. In return, you receive an entry (bib) to the race.

**Fundraising Commitment:** $1,000

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.

For more information about the race, visit the [Peachtree Road Race homepage](https://www.atlantatrackclub.org/peachtree).
