RaceTrac's Run for Research - Atlanta - Atlanta, Georgia - Running

The RaceTrac's Run for Research - Atlanta is a Running race in Atlanta, Georgia consisting of a 1K Kids Run/Fun Run and 5K.

Join us for our largest fundraiser of the year - RaceTrac's Run for Research 5K - in support of the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research! This family-friendly event, which will be held in both Dallas and RaceTrac's hometown of Atlanta, is open to runners and walkers of all levels. All proceeds, including 100% of registration fees, will go directly to fund the Michael J. Fox Foundation's support of Parkinson's research. There will be free food, prizes, music and more at both events.

Fun updates this year include the opportunity to RACE FOR FOX IN YOUR CRAZIEST SOCKS! It's time to break out those neon, knee-high, polka dotted socks you've been saving for a special occasion. The crazier the socks, the better - as long as they aren't smelly!

There's also a new fundraising component called CrowdRise that participants can select during registration to create teams with your friends and families and raise money for the Michael J. Fox Foundation!

More than 5 million people worldwide are living with Parkinson's disease today, so lace up your running shoes and show your support!
