Pumpkin Butt

Marietta, United States • 26 Oct 2025

Pumpkin Butt is a 50K run in Kennesaw, Georgia, organized by GUTS. The event is unofficial due to permit limits, and entry is free for GUTS members. The course features five roughly 10-kilometer loops—the same layout as 2024.

A pumpkin-themed twist drives the race: every runner must bring a pumpkin and may be assigned pumpkin-carrying duties; random pumpkins are drawn, and returning one unharmed can win a prize. There is a cupless policy, aid at the start/finish of each loop, and a canned-good drive for the local food bank. Parking is limited. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
