8th annual

Morningside Mile

A 1-mile Race to Revitalize the North Highland Commercial District
Sunday, March 25, 2018 2:00-7:00 PM

New for 2018—chip timing included in registration, a ‘Just for Fun’ half-miler for kids 10 and under accompanied by an adult guardian, and extended after party #RockTheBlock with beer, refreshments, and live music from My Friend Ian’s Band until 7:00 PM.

After saving the Historic Virginia-Highland Fire Station 19, Atlanta’s premiere 1-mile road race returns bigger and better than ever. This year’s race kicks off the partnership between Morningside Lenox Park Association (MLPA), Virginia-Highland Civic Association (VCHA), and area businesses—we’re joining forces to revitalize the North Highland Corridor through Atlanta’s original intown neighborhoods.

Parking for the event is available on multiple side streets along the race route. Please observe posted signs to avoid tickets/boots and avoid our neighbors' drives to avoid towing.
