Hometown Half Marathon and 5K/10K - Greater Atlanta

The Hometown Half Marathon and 5K/10K in Atlanta, Georgia, is a yearly late-May event for participants of all ages and levels, with races at 7:00 a.m.: a half marathon (13.1 miles), a 10K, a 5K, a 1-mile run and a kids' dash. Runners receive a custom shirt and medal, and chip timing gives accurate results.

Pace leaders and free race photos are available. A virtual option exists, discounted pricing applies to children under 12, and a separate children's race is held. Treats at the finish make it an easy day out with family and friends. Advance registration is required to receive the event shirt. Georgia can be hot and sticky by late May, so a 7:00 a.m. start is welcome but still calls for steady hydration.
