Always Hope Easter Run ATLANTA
Always Hope Easter Run ATLANTA is scheduled for March 27, 2027, at South Peachtree Creek Trail in Decatur, GA. The event offers in-person and virtual participation and keeps field sizes capped by using timed waves to limit crowding.
Available distances include:
- Family 1 mile fun run
- 5K
- 10K
- Half marathon (13.1)
- Virtual run
Event entry includes a shipped running T-shirt for U.S. addresses, a finisher's medal, and a virtual training run sent by email about a month before the race. Participants receive online results and a certificate of completion, and they are offered an invitation to join a local running club. There is an option to upgrade the shirt to a lightweight technical fabric for an additional five dollars.
Timing is optional: participants may track their time with third-party apps and submit results for posting. The event does not use timing chips. Race bibs are distributed on race day while most swag is shipped to registrants. Organizers operate in capped waves and note that coordinators remain on site for three hours after the first wave to support participants. A virtual run option allows people to run on their own schedule and still receive the training pack and finisher items. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
