Peachtree City Classic 5K/15K |
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 15, 2022
The Peachtree City Classic consists of three different live races and two virtual race options: Women’s 5K, Men’s 5K, 15K Open, 5K Virtual, and 15K Virtual. All live races are on certified courses. For the second year in a row, the 15K Open Race will be a RRCA Championship Event.
Races are run mostly on paved golf cart paths that will take you through the green belt areas, by lakes, through small tunnels, across bridges, and on the scenic routes through the planned community of Peachtree City. The course was voted the Best Course by Georgia Athlete Magazine. Nearly 80% of our participants each year are returning runners which speaks volumes about the quality of this race.
