The Midweek Mile & Dash is a FREE youth event designed for kids ages 14 and under. November's Midweek Mile & Dash will take place under the lights of Midtown High School's Eddie S. Henderson Stadium!

Milers will run a full mile on track, while dashers will sprint 50 meters on the infield. Coaches, parents, staff and volunteers are also invited to participate in the celebratory mile at 6:10 pm, where the kids can have a chance to cheer the adults on!

All participants can have fun in the Track & Field Zone with Atlanta Track Club's elite athletes while parents learn more about our youth events and youth programming in the information tent. We hope to see you there.

Atlanta Track Club events are held rain or shine. However, the threat of lightning or other severe weather in the vicinity of the event may result in a delay or cancellation. For full details on our event policies, including weather, refunds and cancellations, click here.
