About the Georgia Race for Autism 5K
The course is USATF certified, so your finishing time here counts as a qualifier for the Peachtree Road Race. The race is held at the Gwinnett County Fairgrounds, and the proceeds go toward camps and clubs run by a local autism support group. It draws people who have a reason to be there beyond the run itself.
Packet pickup runs the afternoon and evening before at the fairgrounds, which takes the pressure off race morning. There is also a race-morning pickup option if the day-before window does not work for you.
