REaDy to Run 5K Run/Walk
REaDy to Run 5K Run/Walk is a community in-person and virtual 5K event held in Atlanta, Georgia. The event marks its sixth year and benefits British Swim Schools in partnership with Hope Floats Foundation, which provides scholarships and tuition assistance for swim lessons.
Distances:
- In-person 5K: 3.1 Miles
- Virtual 5K: 3.1 Miles
The in-person course is USATF certified (cert number GA23014DJ) with mostly flat sections and a few gentle slopes, and it serves as a qualifier for the AJC Peachtree Road Race. No strollers or pets are allowed on the course. A time limit of 1 hour and 15 minutes applies to 5K participants; anyone still on course after the time limit will be asked to vacate the course.
Timing is provided with RFID chip timing by Performance Race Services; results are published live and are chip-to-chip. Participants should display their bib clearly on the front of the torso, unaltered and pinned at all corners, and uncovered for accurate timing.
Event items include a short-sleeve T-shirt and a finisher medal. T-shirt sizes cannot be guaranteed for registrations received after March 31, 2027. Virtual participants receive a finisher medal by mail before race week. Race bibs and event swag are available only at packet pickup; there is no race day packet pickup. All registrations are final and non-transferable.
