The South Fulton Running Partners and Big Peach South Fulton are honored to join the Atlanta Track Club in celebrating Jerome Scales. The Jerome Scales Southside 5 Miler was created to honor Jerome's legacy and his impact on the running community. For 2026 this is a free in-person group run with an option for virtual participation. For additional details go to https://www.atlantatrackclub.org/2026-jerome-scales-southside-5mABOUT JEROME SCALES
Jerome Scales was a longtime member of the Atlanta Track Club who served on its Board of Directors for seven years. Diagnosed with tonsil cancer in 2016, he died on June 20, 2019.
Jerome was a fixture in the Atlanta running community, spreading his love for running to anyone nearby. Even after he was diagnosed, he never let the disease deter him from running or from influencing others to do the same. He adopted the motto "one mile at a time," and focused on finding joy in the journey of running regardless of how far or how fast.
The South Fulton Running Partners share the Atlanta Track Club's commitment to honoring and preserving Jerome Scales' legacy and uplifting the Southside running community. We invite you to learn more about Jerome's impact and Big Rome Running here. https://bigromerunning.org
All registered participants are invited to complete the distance on their own or join one of several optional, informal group runs hosted by Atlanta Track Club and South Fulton Running Partners.
