Atlanta celebrated the Fourth of July by running the AJC Peachtree Road Race, a giant extravaganza of amazing runners and goofy costumes.

Twitter celebrated the Peachtree Road Race the way it always does, with jokes and complaints about MARTA.

The most common type of tweet about the PRR was the post-race selfie.

Then there were complaints about the crowds and MARTA service.

Jeezy also made some waves running in the race.

There were also some words of appreciation for the police officers and public workers who make this day possible.

And lastly, there were those who didn’t go, whether they were busy or thought waking up early on a holiday to go running was crazy.
