Sloth Run 5K/10K/13.1 ATLANTA : Event overview
The Sloth Run is a community-oriented running event on S Peachtree Creek Trail in Decatur, GA, held on April 10, 2027. It offers several distance options and a virtual run so participants can join locally or remotely. The event is organized with capped field sizes per wave to keep participation small and personal; waves fill quickly and a waitlist or virtual option is available when a wave is full.
Available distances:
- 5K
- 10K
- Half marathon 13.1
- Virtual run
- Family 1 mile fun run
Timing at the event is optional. Participants may track time with apps such as Strava, RunKeeper, or Nike Run and submit results through the organizer's submission process, or request help from an on-site coordinator. The event does not use timing chips.
Race materials and extras are mailed to U.S. addresses. Each entry includes a running T-shirt shipped to the participant, a finisher's medal, a virtual training run emailed before the event, online results and a certificate of completion, and an invitation to join a local running club. There is an option to upgrade to a technical shirt for an additional five dollars. Final participant information and course maps are sent the Wednesday before race day.
