Runners start the Publix Atlanta Marathon weekend under the green start banner on a city street.

Joye McElroy

Hometown: Roswell, GA

Races Completed: 11 marathons, 8 half marathons

Craziest Memory: I don't remember the year, maybe 10 years ago, Doritos had an ad with goats eating their chips and then breathing fire. Those goats resided on Lullwater Rd and as we climbed up Lullwater, the goats escaped and decided to run with us for a block or so. Crazy stuff happens!

Favorite Streaker Gift: The arm sleeves!

Marathon Memory: I completed 50 States in January 2014 at the Louisiana Marathon in Baton Rouge. I wanted to finish close to home so maybe some of my friends would come. Over 50 friends joined me. Some ran the 5k, some the half but most the full and few for moral support. We ended up chartering a bus to drive us there and back. The race director was awesome. There was cake, champagne, food and a special tent. It was a weekend I will never forget.
