Coffee Lovers Run - Atlanta
The Coffee Lovers Run takes place on the South Peachtree Creek Trail in Decatur, Georgia. This event is organized as a small, private group run with a cap on the number of participants per wave to maintain a supportive environment. The run is open to all ages, though participants under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian, and includes options for both runners and walkers.
Participants can choose from several distances:
- 5K
- 10K
- 13.1 Half-Marathon
- Family 1 Mile Fun Run
The event uses a wave-based start system to manage the trail capacity. The run is designed without timing chips to provide a stress-free experience, although timing is optional. Runners can track their own progress using various mobile applications or request assistance from on-site coordinators to record their results, which are later posted online.
Registered participants receive a swag bag that includes a running T-shirt, a finisher's medal, and a finisher's towel or other giveaway item. For convenience, hydration and nutritional support are provided by sponsors such as Gatorade and Sweet Nothings. The event organizers also manage charity initiatives, donating one dollar for every mile logged by participants after the race to selected partner organizations. A virtual run option is also available for those unable to attend in person. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
