We will periodically update this section with new information about race registration and when/where to pick up your race bibs for the 2025 Mayor’s Corporate Challenge 5K. Please note we do not offer day of race registration and in past years the race has sold out as much as a week ahead of event date. Therefore, don’t miss an opportunity to participate in this great event by registering today!
Again, please continue to check this website especially in early to mid-August for more information on the race bib pickup. Race shirts will be distributed to finishers day of the event once they have completed the race.
Any questions should be directed to: info@mayorschallenge.com

Frequently Asked Questions
When and where can I pick up my race packet?
Packet pickup will take place in the days leading up to the race at a central location in Alpharetta. Exact details — address, dates, and times — will be posted starting mid-August. Day-of pickup will also be available before the race begins.
What's in my race packet?
Each packet includes your race bib with timing chip, safety pins, and a goodie bag from our sponsors. Official race shirts are handed out on race day as you cross the finish line.
Can I register on race day?
No, we don’t offer race-day registration. In past years the race has sold out as much as a week in advance, so we recommend securing your spot as early as possible.
Is there parking near the start line?
Yes. Parking will be available in designated areas around downtown Alpharetta. With the expected turnout, plan to arrive at least 45 minutes before the start.
Will there be road closures on race day?
Yes. Several streets in downtown Alpharetta will be closed for the event. We’ll publish a downloadable PDF with the closure map and recommended detours well ahead of race day.
Can kids participate?
Absolutely. Our Kids Fun Run starts at 6:00 PM, just before the main 5K — a great way to get the whole family involved.
What if it rains?
The event happens rain or shine. We’d only cancel in extreme weather conditions. Any updates will be sent by email and posted on our social channels.
