A Stroll in the Park - Canton, GA
A Stroll in the Park is scheduled for October 3, 2026 at Boling Park in Canton, GA (1200 Marietta Hwy). The event offers two timed endurance options:
- 12 hour endurance event
- 8 hour endurance event
The course is an approximate one mile crushed gravel loop with a grass shoulder. The surface is described as soft and free of rocks and roots. Only complete laps count toward final mileage. In wet conditions there may be wet areas to navigate. A chart showing the exact loop mileage and mileages for common distances will be available at the event.
One aid station will supply drinks, cold and hot food, cookies, candy, and later in the day items such as pizza, soup, and grilled cheese sandwiches; some vegetarian items are included. The park provides toilets near the running path, shaded areas, and ample parking. Packet pick-up will be located at the park near the path. There are no lights along the path, and runners may need a head lamp until sunrise and around sunset. Lap counting will be done via RFI technology with manual backup and on-screen progress tracking.
Registration rules note a deadline to register by September 15, 2026 to receive a race t-shirt and a registration close date of October 2, 2026. There are no refunds, transfers, rollovers, or deferments. Volunteer roles include set-up, packet pick-up, lap verifying, aid station support, and site clean-up. Completion awards will be given to each 8 hour and 12 hour participant; runners should ensure their mailing address is current in their registration details.
