Event Overview
The Cinco De Mayo Run is a community-focused running event held at the South Peachtree Creek Trail in Decatur, Georgia. This event is organized as a small, private group run with limited capacity per start wave to maintain a supportive environment. It is open to participants of all ages and paces, including both runners and walkers. Participants under 18 years of age must be accompanied by a guardian.
The event follows a pure running format without complex equipment or extensive setup. Coordinators are present on-site to provide support throughout the activity. While this is not a chip-timed race, timing is optional. Participants can track their own progress using various mobile applications and submit their results manually, or they can request assistance from coordinators to record their times.
