Lift up beloved Atlanta BeltLine communities and connect with your neighbors at the Virtual Westside 5K/8K/13K. This year, as we celebrate 10 years of the Run.Walk.Go! series, we are cutting out the crowds and increasing our commitment to BeltLine residents and businesses.

Participate at your convenience in our reimagined fan-favorite and submit your best race time by noon on July 25 with the peace of mind that you’re social distancing. In addition, 10% of race proceeds will benefit the West End Family Life and Community Center pantry. Since 2012, the center has been making a difference in the lives of children, seniors and young adults in the West End Community.

Your entry supports the important work of the Atlanta BeltLine Partnership to empower residents in BeltLine communities by helping us connect them with affordable housing, jobs, and a healthy lifestyle.

Never participated in a virtual race? That’s OK! We’ll share everything you need to know.

Sign up for the race you want to participate in: the 5k, the 8k, or the ultimate challenge 13k! Sign up here.
Get your race bib and t-shirt (t-shirt optional). You can either request that we mail your bib/t-shirt to you when you register, OR you can pick them up at our contactless race packet pick-up event to be held Saturday, July 11 at The Ke’nekt in West End.
Get out there and run! We encourage you to run your race on one of the Westside Trail courses we’ve designed for you (see below). Plenty of free parking is available at Lee + White. After your run on the Westside Trail be sure to stop by and grab refreshments at one of the many awesome businesses located along the trail. Or, you can run your favorite route in your neighborhood or wherever you like. Wherever you run, wear your shirt and bib to help spread the word and get others involved!
