Weather in Atlanta is unpredictable most days of the year as is, but in January it can literally be in the 60s one day and 30s the next. I was excited to know that pre-race and post-race activities would be held inside of Phillips Arena. I was even more excited on race day when it was in the 30s with a bit of a breeze. As an added bonus, on court photos were available for a brief period as well. How fun is that?!?
Today wasn't about PRing though. It was about soaking up the 'happy birthdays', high-fives, and fun. The finish line was positioned in front of Phillips Arena and had great fanfare awaiting runners (music, DJ, cheerleaders, etc).
