Run Like Hell 5k

Saturday, October 19, 2013

Early Saturday morning as the sun was rising over Atlanta, costumed figures made their way through the early morning light to participate in the Run Like Hell 5k through Oakland Cemetery in downtown. More than 1,400 people ran in the 6th annual event that lead through part of the Grant Park neighborhood and wound back through historic cemetery. A good majority of the people participating in the race were dressed as their favorite characters. Zombies, super heroes, witches, wizards, sea life, ghosts, goblins and much more.
