Grove Park Community 5K

Together, we're healthier

Calling all runners, joggers and walkers! Join us for the fourth annual Grove Park Community 5K. This race is an awesome opportunity to get active and be healthy while helping an Atlanta community thrive.

Funds raised from the event benefit the Grove Park Foundation and a community fund supporting additional partners.

This year’s course winds through the beautiful Westside Park, where you can see the historic neighborhood of Grove Park firsthand – along with many of the residents who make this such a special and important part of Atlanta. It is chip timed. Strollers and dogs are welcome!

Awards will be given to overall male and female, masters male and female, fastest Grove Park resident, and the fastest SouthState Employee.
