About the Haunted Hustle 1M/5K
The Haunted Hustle runs on Halloween, so costumes are very much part of the scene. Individuals, families, and groups all show up dressed for it. The race supports YMCA youth programs, and that cause gives the morning a genuine sense of purpose beyond the finish line. It also qualifies for the Peachtree Road Race.
Professional race photos are included for every participant, and childcare is available on-site for runners who need it. Both are worth knowing before you pack your bag for the morning.
