2017 Peachtree City 8K & 15K

Due to the increasing threat of thunderstorms, we are canceling the 8K and 15K in Peachtree City. We will attempt to hold a 5K, weather permitting. However, if you are traveling to the race, do so knowing the event may be canceled completely. The cancellation will not impact the Grand Prix Series presented by Piedmont Healthcare or eligibility for the David Jordan Award.

Join Atlanta Track Club, in partnership with the Peachtree City Running Club, for the second stop on the 2017 Grand Prix Series presented by Piedmont Healthcare for the Peachtree City 8K & 15K. This event starts and finishes at Frederick Brown Amphitheater, and the course includes golf cart paths, wooded areas, bridges and tunnels.
