About the Race 2027 10-Year Anniversary Homecoming

The Race is a road event offering a half marathon and a shorter distance, built around a broader weekend that includes an expo, speakers, and a community service day the morning after the race. The course is chip-timed and runs through East Point. The weekend has a distinct cultural identity, with the run itself feeling like one piece of a larger gathering rather than a standalone race.

All packets are collected at the expo the day before the race, with no race-morning pickup available, so plan accordingly. A shuttle runs between the host hotel and the race venue on both expo day and race morning, with the race-day shuttle departing very early.

Common Questions About the The Race 2027 10-Year Anniversary Homecoming

Will I finish last at the Race 2027 10-Year Anniversary Homecoming?

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 40:47, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:18:42, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Race 2027 10-Year Anniversary Homecoming a good first 3.1 Miles?

With 1,546 finishers there are runners at every pace, so you are never out on your own. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 3.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Race 2027 10-Year Anniversary Homecoming?

The 3.1 Miles winner ran 17:28 while the median finisher took 40:47. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
