About the Sweet & Sour 5K/10K/15K
The course runs out along Peachtree Industrial Boulevard, loops through E.E. Robinson, and comes back the same way, with different turnaround points depending on which distance you chose. It is an out-and-back on a recognizable road, so you always know where you are. Self-serve water stations are spaced out along the route, though runners chasing a fast time may want to carry their own.
Check-in opens in front of the Eagle Theater, and races start on Church Street shortly after. Packet pickup happens race morning, beginning about an hour before the start. At the finish, the sweet and sour theme plays out in the food: a sweet treat waits at the end of the shorter distance, sour beer at the end of the middle distance, and both if you run the longest.

The Sweet & Sour 5K/10K/15K has been held every year since at least 2025. 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 Nov 12, 2026.
