Race for Rest Presented by Monday Night Brewing
About this race
Join us for The Furniture Bank of Metro Atlanta's 12th annual Race for Rest in partnership with Monday Night Brewing! Yes, there will be free beer (21+)!
WHY SHOULD YOU RUN IN THE RACE FOR REST 5K?
1. If you register for the 5k by October 10th, you are guaranteed a super cool free t-shirt!
2. Every 5k participant (21 and over, of course) will receive a FREE beer from Monday Night Garage! Plus, all runners get coffee from Dancing Goats Coffee!
3. Our 5k is a chipped Peachtree Road Race qualifier that runs along the Beltline!
4. We'll have an official 5k after-party at the Garage with live music!
5. Because everyone deserves a place to lay their head at night!
WHERE IS THIS HAPPENING?
The race begins and ends at Monday Night Brewing's Garage location at Lee + White! The location is Marta accessible (yeah, public transportation!) and has ample parking, but we highly encourage runners to carpool or use Uber/Lyft.
WHEN SHOULD YOU BE THERE?
The race starts at 9am on Saturday, October 24th. Come ready to run (or walk) and support Atlanta families in need! All funds raised will support Furniture Bank programs.
If you are picking up your packet on race day or registering on-site, please visit the registration table by 8:30am at the very latest!
If you pick up your packet before race day, you can arrive as late as 8:45 a.m. We will host early packet pick-ups on Thursday, October 22nd, and Friday, October 23rd (locations & times TBD).
