About

Join us for the 4th annual Cupcake RUN! 5K Run/Walk Celebrating Girls, Friends and Families on Sunday, March 24th, 2019 at 8:00 am in Atlanta's scenic Piedmont Park!

The Cupcake RUN! is a super-fun annual event in support of the development of healthy, happy girls. In addition to gathering girls together in the name of fun, fitness, family, friends and philanthropy, this event illuminates the impact of childhood obesity, for which African American girls and other girls of color are particularly at risk. The Cupcake RUN! is a celebratory event which aims to address barriers to obesity with a family and community approach to fitness that creates opportunities to exercise safely and consistently.

Route information

From USA Today's 10 Best: Piedmont Park is Atlanta's Central Park, or at least a mini version of it. Among all the skyscrapers in the Midtown area, this is a beautiful piece of green. There are paved trails that many like to come and roller blade on a weekend afternoon. There's even a dog park for fido. Besides the green space, there's a beautiful pond, a swimming pool, tennis and basketball are available too. People of all different types play at Piedmont Park, so everyone is welcome and no one is out of place.
