Not a Resolution. A starting line.

Why We Run

Every new year deserves a first step worth remembering.

Every one of us has a season we want to build on. A version of ourselves we're moving toward. The Redemption Race is about showing up on January 1st and making the first mile of the new year count. Runners and walkers, competitors and community supporters, people chasing a PR and people just showing up for the first time in a while. All of you belong here.

This isn't just a 5K. It's a community that starts training with you weeks before race day and celebrates with you long after the finish line. We'll run together through Westside Park — Atlanta's largest greenspace — on the first morning of the new year, and we'll do it knowing that forward motion is the whole point.

Redemption isn't about what happened before. It's about what you're reaching for next.

January 1st. Atlanta. Your first mile of the new year.

This is a celebration of persistence, healing, and personal transformation. Come as you are. Here, we grow together!

Your first win of the new year starts here.
