Get ready for a unique and heartwarming experience at the Sloth Runner's Club 5K/10K/13.1 in Atlanta, taking place on Saturday, July 29, 2023! This event invites sloth lovers and running enthusiasts alike to come together for a fun-filled day of fitness and philanthropy in Fulton. Participants can choose from three exciting race distances—5K, 10K, or 13.1 miles—making it perfect for all skill levels, whether you prefer to run or walk.

Not only will you enjoy a scenic custom-designed route, but you'll also be supporting a wonderful cause.
