STREAKERS
What is a Streaker?
In 2007, Publix Atlanta Marathon (known at the time as ING Georgia Marathon) celebrated its inaugural year. Almost 20 years later, Atlanta Track Club, which took over this event in 2016, is preparing to celebrate the 20th Running at the Publix Atlanta Marathon, Half Marathon & 5K. The following individuals have run all 19 years* of this event and are aptly named "Streakers."
