World Athletics Label
All Atlanta Track Club elite races are World Athletics Label events. The World Athletics Label signifies the highest levels of competition worldwide. Race organizers must abide by World Athletics rules and guidelines, achieve the highest level of course certification, include the world's best athlete competitors, and participate in the Athletics for a Better World program, among other requirements. Athletes have the opportunity to earn World Athletics ranking points and the chance to win some of the largest prize purses in the sport.
Through choosing to have a World Athletics Label, race organizers also show a tangible commitment to clean sport by funding a dedicated road racing out-of-competition testing program, managed by the Athletics Integrity Unit.
