Each year we bring runners, walkers, inline skaters, wheelchair athletes and professional cyclists together for a single cause — to raise awareness and funds for children’s charities in Georgia and for the future development of the World Children’s Center. Race Participants include elite athletes from around the world, national and regional 10K running champions, international and regional cyclists, inline skaters, wheelchair athletes, corporate team runners, race walkers, walkers and people who just love to participate! Known for our hills, we offer a challenging yet memorable course. Ultimately, the hills on our course pale in comparison to the challenges faced each day by children with no place to call home. Our goal is to help build a strong, loving community and provide that home to those who need it most. We hope you will be a part of this cause as we strive to make life better for all children! |
