Course Info

One of the unique things about our USATF Certified Course is that it passes by two of our new build neighborhood developments. The first neighborhood is called Austin Meadows and has 15 Habitat homes. This development was completed in 2016. Our second neighborhood is Hannah Springs and will contain 28 Habitat homes. We have completed the first ten homes and are working on the next two. Construction of the neighborhood began in 2016. This will be a unique opportunity for race participants to see the tangible impact we are making in the community for affordable homeownership! The Raise the Roof 5k Color Run is also aAJC Peachtree Road Race Qualifying Event.
