Livable Buckhead’s 5K Returns On May 4thbuckheadRUN!, Livable Buckhead’s sixth annual 5K, returns on Saturday, May 4. Once again, this year’s race is part of Buckhead Village District’s Bodacious Blooms festival, a four-day celebration of spring featuring larger-than-life floral installations and community-wide events.
Livable Buckhead is encouraging runners of all ages and abilities to join the fun and to bring their four-legged friends with them. In addition to awards for the fastest runners in various age groups, buckheadRUN! includes a “Fastest Fido” category, bandana giveaways for dogs, a pre-race hype event and post-race celebration. Runners are also encouraged to celebrate spring by dressing in flower-themed costumes and garb. Livable Buckhead will award prizes for the best flower costumes.
This year’s field of runners will follow a new USA Track and Field-certified course that begins at Lenox Square, follows PATH400 to Miami Circle then takes Piedmont Rd. and East Paces Ferry Rd. to Buckhead Village. buckheadRUN! is a 2025 Peachtree Road Race qualifier.
buckheadRUN! registration is $35 for adults and $15 for children. Registration increases to $45 for adults and $25 for children after April 12. Awards will be given to the top male and female in eight divisions, and all registered runners will receive a commemorative t-shirt following the race. The “Fastest Fido” award will go to the fastest dog in the race.
The day before buckheadRUN!, volunteers of all ages are invited to decorate the PATH400 section of the race course with chalk art flowers. Volunteers will meet at the East Paces Ferry Rd. entrance to PATH400 at 3 p.m. on Friday, May 3.
