Johnnie Lay Burks Elementary Ribbit Run
This event takes place on March 6, 2027 at Johnnie Lay Burks Elementary School in Athens, Georgia, at 757 N. Chase Street. The program includes multiple running events for different ages and distances.
- Ribbit Run 5K, 3.1 Miles

- Tiny Tree Frog Trot, 0.1 Miles
Registration opens on November 5, 2026 for the listed events. Entry fees vary by event: the 5K has a fee of $20.00, the Phantom Runner option has a fee of $15.00, and the 1K and Tiny Tree Frog Trot are listed with no fee. Registration closing dates differ by entry type; some entries close before the event while others accept registrations through the event day. A t-shirt is available for registrations completed by mid-February 2027 for certain entry types; later registrations may not include a t-shirt or may be treated as contributions.
The Phantom Runner option allows participants to support the school without running. Event proceeds are designated to fund the Ribbit Run, the after-school Tree Frog Run Club, and the Burks Elementary PTO. Volunteers are also requested to assist with the event; prior experience is not required. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
