Held at the Sam Smith Park just outside downtown Cartersville, GA, this event is quickly becoming a holiday tradition.  The 5K course is USATF-Certified (GA18041WC).  The newly-designed 10K course is a USATF-Certified course as well.  Both are not only scenic but also very fast.  These are official Peachtree Road Race qualifier.

So, come enjoy this fun, family-friendly scenic route encircling Cartersville's majestic Sam Smith Park!  Word on the street is that Santa will be there, and you won't want to miss him!!  He's making a list of registrants, checking it twice, and it's probably naughty to miss this race.  So BE NICE!  Come out with the whole family and be a part of this fast-growing holiday tradition in Cartersville!!  Run it, walk it, or crawl it. Just be a part of it.

Dress up in your most creative costume (See Costume Contest divisions below).  Pets are welcome (on a leash, please).  Yep, even Fifi and Bowzer are invited, so dress up those 4-footed furries and BRING...YOUR...FRIENDS!
