At 7:30 A.M. on what is likely to be a hazy warm morning this coming 4th of July, 55,000 runners in the 40th running of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Peachtree Road Race will line up from Lenox Square north to the horizon. Over 900 volunteers will help coordinate the start, and it will be a full hour and 15 minutes before the final runner gets a chance to begin his or her 6.2 mile run down Peachtree Road to finish on 10th Street. The Peachtree is the largest 10K road race in the U.S. and is arguably the best and most prestigious race of its kind.
