A Stroll in the Park - Canton, GA

A Stroll in the Park is an endurance running event held at Boling Park in Canton, GA on October 3, 2026. The event offers timed options over fixed durations on a looped course, with recorded lap totals and completion recognition for participants.

The course is a roughly one-mile loop on crushed gravel with a grass shoulder. Only full laps count toward final mileage. The surface is described as soft and free of rocks and roots; in wet weather there may be wet areas to navigate. There are no lights along the path, and runners may require a headlamp until after sunrise and again as light fades. Wearing gaiters is recommended. Facilities at the park include toilets near the path, shaded areas, and ample parking. Packet pick-up will be located at the park near the path.

Support and logistics include a single aid station stocked with drinks, cold and hot food, cookies, candy, and later pizza, soup, and grilled cheese; some vegetarian items will be available. Laps are tracked by RFI technology with manual backup and on-screen progress tracking. The entry fee is listed at USD 110. No refunds, transfers, rollovers, or deferments are allowed. Organizers request volunteers for setup, aid station support, lap verification, and site cleanup.
