CLAYTON COUNTY. THIS ONE IS FOR US.
Since 2017, Coach K & Lightweight Fitness gym has been building real momentum in Clayton County through fitness training, free weekly run club, free bootcamps across the county, and community outreached Teacher Tone Up in local schools. We believe fitness should be accessible, visible, and part of the culture.

This race is about pride in where we’re from and bringing awareness to the health benefits of physical activity and mental wellness right here in Clayton County.
We will start outside Tara Stadium heading down Jester's Creek Trail and back with a race finish at the stadium with music, crowd energy, and a full vendor celebration.
