Registration
When is registration for the Northside Hospital Peachtree Road Race and how does registration work?
Registration for the 57th Running of the Northside Hospital Peachtree Road Race will be open April 1-21. Charity Wave registrants have until June 1.
Member registration: Atlanta Track Club members are guaranteed entry into the race at the lowest price available, and are guaranteed placement in Start Wave A - M.
Lottery registration: Non-Atlanta Track Club members must enter through the lottery. All participants that enter will have a fair chance of securing a spot. You must enter a credit card when registering, but your card will not be charged unless you are selected. Lottery notifications will go out beginning April 22.
How much is entry into the Northside Hospital Peachtree Road Race?
In 2026, entry into the Northside Hospital Peachtree Road Race is $60 for Atlanta Track Club members. The price for those that enter through the lottery is $80. All registrations incur a service fee.
Do I need to submit a proof of a qualifying race result during registration?
During registration, event participants can agree to be matched to race results from an Atlanta Track Club 5K or 10K or submit no time.
Or participants can choose to submit a race result from any USATF-certified 5K or 10K course.
- All matches and submitted times must be from January 1, 2024 to March 29, 2026.
- Participants will be placed in the appropriate start wave based on the race result time they submit.
- Participants will not be able to edit their qualifying time once their registration is complete.
Atlanta Track Club members are guaranteed start wave placement A-M! Not a member? Become one here, and then register for the Peachtree to guarantee an earlier start wave placement.
Qualifying times are not required for registration, but will be used to assign the appropriate start wave to each participant.
What information will I need to have on hand to enter a finish time for this year's Peachtree start wave placement?
Those who choose to submit a race result from a non Atlanta Track Club race will need to provide the finish time with a direct URL to your results. The more isolated to your direct results, the better for verification. Only 5Ks and 10Ks qualify.
Will the time I submit for start wave placement be verified?
Yes, all times submitted for start wave placement will be verified by Atlanta Track Club.
Your name in registration must match your name in the results that you submit for verification.
I forgot to submit my start wave placement time during registration. Can I submit my time now?
All submissions are final upon completion of registration.
What are the wave standards?

When will I see my verified time? Can it be updated?
In early May, Atlanta Track Club will email all registered participants with verification of your best 5K or 10K performance at an Atlanta Track Club event between January 1, 2024 and March 29, 2026 or the race result that you submitted. If we are unable to verify the performance or if you prefer to submit a different result from a USATF certified 5K or 10K during that same time period, you will be able to submit those results for verification and wave placement at that time. Race times achieved after March 29, 2026 will not be accepted.
My name is listed differently in the results for my qualifying time, what should I do?
