COURSE MAP & SAFETY
The 2025 Chick-fil-A Peachtree Junior has moved to Lenox Square! The Mile will utilize the start line of the AJC Peachtree Road Race. Participants will run 0.5 miles south on Peachtree Road, turn around, and then head back to finish on Peachtree's start line. The Dash will start 50 meters south of the start line.
Safety is our top priority at Chick-fil-A Peachtree Junior. The following measures are taken for our mile participants:
- Over 30 course monitor volunteers and police officers to make sure participants stay on track and move safely down the out-and-back course
- Lead (bicyclist or police motorcycle) and a sweep volunteer for each wave, ensuring that all participants finish safely
- Secure Child Pickup Area after the finish line, where we will hold your child until you arrive.
For the safety and enjoyment of all participants, parents are not allowed on the Mile course.
For the safety and enjoyment of all participants, no pets, or wheeled conveyances of any kind, including baby joggers/strollers, roller/inline skates, and bicycles, are permitted on the course. Headphones are strongly discouraged.
TIMING & RESULTS
All Mile registrants will be timed and unofficial results will live at the time of the event. Results will become final approximately two weeks after the event.
Your timing device for this
event is a MYLAPS ThinTag. The device is adhered to the back of your race
number. DO NOT REMOVE OR BEND. Wearing your race number improperly could result
in improper scoring and possible disqualification. In order to receive an
accurate time, please confirm your race number is:
- Clearly visible on the front of the torso
- Unaltered and unmodified (Do not fold or wrinkle)
- Pinned in all four corners
- Not covered (jackets, fuel belts, etc.)
- If you do not wish to have your child timed, you may peel off the timing device or simply bend it several times.
