Sunday was the final day to complete the virtual running of the AJC Peachtree Road Race. To keep runners safe due to the coronavirus pandemic, the annual race went virtual this year with participants having Nov. 26-29 to complete the world’s largest 10k.
In a traditional year, crowds cheer as finishers dash across the finish line, but you can still see who finished and the time it took them to complete the 6.2-mile race. Race results and finish times are available here. The current race results are not final and may not be entirely reflective of actual race times. Results for this year’s AJC Peachtree Road Race will not be official until 30 days after the race, as is the case with the race every year.
On the first three days of the race, participants took to the streets using an app and often social media to document their virtual run, and the third day was no different. Several runners decided to complete their race on the last day and here are just a few of the posts shared on social media.
Atlanta Track Club took to Twitter to encourage runners to complete the race on the final day.
