The Publix Atlanta Marathon Weekend is a cornerstone of American road racing. Held over two days, the event features a full marathon, half marathon, 5K, and youth races, all of which have been sold out in the past years — underscoring its national appeal. The marathon and half marathon courses wind through Atlanta’s tree-lined streets, passing major landmarks and showcasing the city’s southern charm. The Half Marathon hosted the 2025 USATF Half Marathon Championships, attracting elite athletes and a national broadcasting. The event offers race shirts, finisher medals, and on-course entertainment. For younger athletes, the Kids Marathon features a 5K, 3K, 50m dash, and a Track & Field Zone. The race also serves as a Marathon Majors Age Group World Rankings Qualifier, linking Atlanta with the global marathon stage.
