Tips & Advice
- Arrive early on race day to allow ample time for packet pickup and to find parking, especially if you haven't picked up your packet beforehand.
- Dress in layers, as December weather in Atlanta can be unpredictable. The Santa suit adds warmth, so consider lighter layers underneath.
- Bring your family and friends to cheer you on! Piedmont Park offers scenic spots for spectators to enjoy the festive atmosphere.
- Check the specific packet pickup times and locations in advance to avoid missing out, as they are held on days prior to the race.
- Consider participating in the Elf Dash if you have younger children, as it's a shorter, fun run designed for them.
