This is an Official AJC Peachtree Road Race Qualifying Event and is limited to 1,500 runners.
All proceeds from the race benefit the Chattahoochee Nature Center’s environmental education programs focused on the Chattahoochee River and its watershed as well as CNC’s wildlife rehabilitation efforts.
So far this year, CNC has taken in over 200 injured animals – that’s more than one a day! The on-site staff works tirelessly to help the injured animals and return them to their habitats, if possible.
Participants will receive a swag bag filled with goodies as well as a commemorative t-shirt. Winners in each age group will receive medals. All runners receive free admission to CNC’s 127 acres all day.
In addition to helping wildlife, CNC hosts more than 40,000 students from more than 400 schools in the metro Atlanta area, teaching them all about the importance and science of nature. For many students, CNC is the first time they are out in nature or on the Chattahoochee River.
Before and after the race, Possum Trot registrants can enjoy food, music and more at CNC’s Ben Brady Lakeside Pavilion, and free entry all day to CNC’s 127 acres.
