The start location is Lanier Blvd and Virginia Ave. The routed course winds through tree-lined, historic streets; the official course map will be posted by April 1, 2026. The event is chip timed and serves as an official AJC Peachtree Road Race qualifier.

Race packet pickup is available before the event at the parking lot at 1017 N Highland Ave NE in Virginia-Highland; participants may pick up for others with a QR code. Saturday pickup provides race bibs only and t-shirts are distributed at the end of the race.
