Participants select a preferred shirt size at registration but receive a surprise bundle at the finish containing a race shirt and a finisher medal from a previous event, presented White Elephant–style. Awards are given to the top three male and female finishers in five-year age groups, beginning with 10 and under and continuing through older age brackets.
Race services include self-serve water stations approximately every 1.5 miles; personal hydration is recommended for runners who prefer not to stop. Course maps are provided for each distance. An early packet pickup is scheduled for December 11 at New Realm Brewing (550 Somerset Terrace NE #101, Atlanta, GA 30306). Race day check-in and registration are available.
Registration is offered in tiers: early bird (ends 08/07), regular (ends 12/05), late (ends 12/11), and race day, with separate pricing for each distance and a virtual race option. The event supports teams and fundraising; virtual participants can run remotely, submit results online, and view results after the event date.
