For a few years, Atlanta Track Club held their Resolution Run as a 4 Miler in Brookhaven but in 2018 it moved to Piedmont Park and changed back to a 5K. Y'all know that I love Atlanta Track Club events, so of course I would be at the Resolution Run 5K to kick off 2020!
1-Mile and 50m Dash.
Things started a little congested, but thinned out pretty quickly. There was an uphill portion right towards the start of the course which caused a good amount of runners to slow down a good bit right away, but within about 1/2 mile in things were pretty clear. There are a few decent sized hills along the way with a good amount of rolling hills and "flat" portions the remainder of the way.
One of my favorite parts of the course is running Active Oval which is basically a light dirt and gravel loop in the park. There were even some junior runners out there logging their miles - I hope to see some of them rockin' at other events this year and especially at the Peachtree Road Race on July 4th!
It was an absolutely wonderful morning and a great way to kickoff 2020. After leaving the race we stopped and got some brunch before going on the rest of the day. Thank you to the awesome Atlanta Track Club team and of course all of the wonderful volunteers and emergency personnel for braving the cold and making this morning possible.
