Course & Travel Notes

The Miles for Melanoma 5K takes place in early November when Atlanta typically experiences highs around 62°F and lows near 41°F, so plan for cool morning temperatures with layers you can shed as the day warms—note that roughly 30% of days see rain this time of year, so consider bringing a light rain jacket. The race starts at 7:30 AM in Dunwoody, just before sunrise at 7:03 AM, so a headlamp or reflective gear will be helpful for the start. The venue sits at 1079 feet elevation, which is relatively modest for running. DeKalb Peachtree Airport (PDK) is your nearest option, located just 4.1 miles from the race site.
