Ultimate Peach Race Series

What is the Ultimate Peach Series?


2025 Ultimate Peach Series Medal

Your Yearlong Running Challenge

The Ultimate Peach is a celebration of runners and walkers who take on four of Atlanta's premier races, pushing themselves farther with each event. This exclusive challenge starts with the AJC Peachtree Road Race and continues through the PNC Atlanta 10 Miler and Invesco QQQ Thanksgiving Day Half Marathon, culminating in the following year's Publix Atlanta Marathon. It's the perfect way to stay motivated all year and take on longer distances if you never have before!

🏅 An exclusive Ultimate Peach medal to celebrate their achievements
🎉 VIP race-day perks at Publix Atlanta Marathon, including a dedicated gear check, porta-johns, breakfast and post-race massage
📛 Special recognition with a commemorative bib sticker identifying them as an Ultimate Peach finisher
