Additional Information
We will have a prizes for age divisions in addition to overall first place men and women's and masters mens' and womens'. There will also be a jogging stroller division. The race is also one of the greenest in the area, reflecting Oakhurst Cooperative Preschool’s strong commitment to environmental education and sustainable practices. Compostable cups will be provided to all runners, and special efforts will be made to collect any compostable or recyclable waste generated by the event. In addition, the school will be facilitating a Nike re-use-a-shoe drive in conjunction with the race. A special door prize also will be reserved for a participant who makes an effort to be green on race day, either by carpooling, taking public transportation or bringing a pair of shoes for recycling.There will be a fun post race party with lots of kid friendly activities. Big Peach, Whole Foods, Mix 1, Fontis, Larabar, and Frannie's Gluten Free Muffins will all be there. Big Peach is providing gift certificates for the top 4 overall finisher awards (1st male female and 1st masters male and female). Coan Park is an excellent venue with some really good post run hang out areas and lots of greenspace for throwing a frisbee. We've rented the rec center so we'll have those amenities - like restrooms - all there for runners too. This will be a very eco-conscious race as well with limited trash and a door prize for a runner who comes via alternate transportation such as biking, running, marta, or carpooling. The preschool was recently featured in the AJC for its efforts to sustain the environment.
Registration is on-going at active.com or instore at the Big Peach in Decatur until Wed.
