Run the Reagan Half Marathon, 10k & 5k
Overview
A late winter fixture on the metro Atlanta road race calendar, Snellville’s Run the Reagan Half Marathon, 10K, 5K and fun run welcomes more than 3,000 runners each year for all races combined, along a course that unfolds along the Ronald Reagan Parkway just north of Snellville. Runners can choose between the half-marathon, 10K, 5K or 1-mile fun run, and all of the races start near Emory Eastside Medical Center at the corner of Ronald Reagan Parkway and Presidential Circle in Snellville, Georgia. The race courses are moderately challenging, with no traffic as Ronald Reagan Parkway is closed the day of the race.
Course Description
The half course takes runners along paved surfaces throughout the entire race — this out-and-back race is run entirely along the Reagan Parkway, a 7.3-mile-long four-lane highway that connects Snellville with nearby Lilburn. Water stops are found every 1-1/2 miles along the course, and medical attention and port-a-johns are available at various convenient points. Proceeds from the race go to benefit three of Gwinnett County’s non-profit organizations, the Southeast Gwinnett Cooperative Ministry, the Lilburn Cooperative Ministry, and the Brookwood Schools Foundation.
