Itinerary:

Join us for this 6.5 mile run on the Atlanta Beltline Eastside Trail / Piedmont Park!

You're welcome to set your own run pace. Run-walk-run types are welcome. This is not a hike or walking event, but a fun run.

*** Itinerary is subject to change before and during event & may be cancelled due to weather

Start to Finish:

We will meet and start our group run at Krog Street Market, the perfect place to grab a pre or post-run coffee, hot chocolate or tea. We’ll jog (or run walk, or skip, or hop, or moonwalk, or whatever you fancy) from Krog Street Market onto the Eastside Beltine Trail headed north to Piedmont Park. At the end of the Beltline Trail, we will enter into Piedmont Park, take some pics, turn around and head back to Krog Street Market. It’s a beautiful run and you might even discover some hidden gems along the way!

Total running distance is approximately 6.5 miles. Finishing time can vary depending on pace so please be flexible.

If you’re not able to keep up with the group, don’t worry! You can always take a break and enjoy the scenery. Just remember to bring a compass, a map, and a flare gun in case you get lost.

But seriously, we do try to stick together and make sure everyone is accounted for. If you do get separated from the group, just follow the Beltline trail back to Krog Street Market.

Remember, it’s not all just about the running speed and pace, it’s about the journey and chance to be among AOC friends. So let’s lace up our running shoes and hit the Beltline!

Additional Information:

On our run, we will pass by Ponce Market, Fourth Ward Skatepark, Historic Old Fouth Ward Park, several restuarants, artsy murals & street art, tiny doors (Beltline – Tiny Doors ATL, and more!

What better way to start a weekend than with a Saturday morning run!

Optional: Join us for coffee/tea or hot chocolate, pastry, etc. after the run at Krog Street Market. You're responsible for your own cost and waistline :)
