Our Peachtree Qualifier course (USATF Course #GA20006DJ) is 100% inside of Veteran's Park, wonderfully flat, fast, and chip timed. We have the entire Veteran's Memorial Park in Canton, so there won't be any traffic beeping to pressure you to run faster. You can race through, do a leisurely jog, or walk the 5K course, starting at 6 PM. You don't want to miss this one!

Parking is off-site at Revolution Church. Shuttle Service from off-site parking is available.
In the past, parking has been limited to the field areas at Veteran’s Memorial Park to be able to run through the lights. We were lucky to have dry weather before and during the event. With increased participation, spaces filled quickly. Early departure before the awards was difficult due to runners and walkers still on the course.
This year, parking will be at Revolution Church, located at 125 Union Hill Trail, Canton, GA. We have multiple shuttles for service this year. Shuttles will begin at 4 pm for registration and pre-race activities and continue after the race returning runners and guests to the parking.
We’d like EVERYONE to use off-site parking. You can drop off families and friends, but we encourage and recommend parking at Revolution Church and using shuttle this year.
For those wanting to drive through the lights afterward, just show your race bib for free entry on the night of the event.
Shuttle route to and from Revolution Church to Veteran’s Memorial Park at 7345 Cumming Hwy, Canton, GA.
