Atlanta Marathon and Half Marathon

External Link: Event Website
Location: Turner Field
The Atlanta Marathon, held on Thanksgiving Day, is the oldest marathon in the Southeast and one of the ten oldest in the country. It is also the only U.S. marathon run on an Olympic course—approximately 90% of the course is the same as that run by the world’s best at the Atlanta Games in 1996.
The Atlanta Half Marathon is among the largest half marathons in the US, and while slightly less demanding than the Atlanta Marathon, it is still guaranteed to work up runners' appetites. The Atlanta Half Marathon has become a holiday tradition for thousands of runners and volunteers alike.
