BuckheadRUN! 2025 – The Only 5K Where You Can Pet a LlamaSaturday May 3rd 8:00 am to 10:00 am
🐘 Run. Roar. Revel in Ridiculousness. 🦒🐊
This year, BuckheadRUN! isn’t just about running—it’s about making Buckhead a little wilder (without any actual wildlife escaping onto Peachtree Road). On Saturday, May 3rd, 2025, we’re hitting the streets to celebrate our future sculpted petting zoo along the new PATH400 extension. That’s right — later this year we’re bringing a life-sized elephant, a towering giraffe, and a not-so-menacing crocodile to the heart of the city. They won’t move, bite, or require snacks, but they will make Buckhead the coolest place to take a selfie.
Because we believe fun should be furry, feathery, or fantastically weird, we’re encouraging runners of all ages and abilities to dress as their favorite animals. Whether you gallop like a gazelle, waddle like a penguin, or just wear cat ears and call it a day, you’ll fit right in!
🐾 What’s New This Year?
Costume Contest: The wilder, the better. Who wouldn’t want to see a human-sized giraffe outrun a cheetah in sneakers?
Fastest Fido Category: Because your dog deserves to chase glory (and possibly a squirrel).
Paw-some Giveaways: All runners receive and t-shirt and swag bag
Post-Race Fun: Stick around for the LLamas....seriously, we will have real Llamas, who doesn't love Llamas. There will be lots of fun for the whole family.
By participating in BuckheadRUN! 2025, you’re helping to support Livable Buckhead's mini safari—minus the plane ticket to Africa. So lace up, grab your fur babies, and let’s run for the (very still, very sculpted) animals!
