Runningman Festival is a three day event at Kingston Downs in Rome, Georgia that combines a choose your own distance run on The Loop with wellbeing programming and an experiential expo. The festival includes breakout sessions, a Learning Lab with speakers and coaches, yoga and breathwork in a Zen Zone, and live music.

RVs and campers are not permitted.
