About the Chilly Willy 5K/10K/Half Marathon - Atlanta
The route follows Peachtree Industrial Blvd, bends through E.E. Robinson Park, and returns the way it came, with each distance turning around at a different point. The longest option covers that loop twice. It is a straightforward shape, and the terrain is runnable for most paces, though the cutoff pace for the longest distance is firm enough that slower runners should plan for it.
Pickup is on race morning, with the window opening before the start. Water stations are spread along the course, but if you plan to run hard and skip the stops, carrying your own hydration is worth it. Both the start and finish are chip-timed, so your net time is clean regardless of where you line up.

The Chilly Willy 5K/10K/Half Marathon - Atlanta has been held every year since at least 2018. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Sep 22, 2026.
