The first 45,000 applicants (out 55,000 total entries) will be accepted through online registration. If it is anything like previous race registrations, the field will fill out quickly, probably within minutes.

- Print a copy of your race confirmation page for your records. You will also receive an e-mail confirming your race entry within 24 hours after successfully registering.
Peachtree Applications will also be available in the AJC on March 22, 2009. However, only 10,000 runners will be able to get into the race through this ”old” method.
Running through Buckhead and Mid-town neighborhoods is fun, but you must be trained and ready to do it. The race is always scheduled for early morning July 4: the humidity level is as high as the excitement level!
