Hello. I am Edna Reed. I became a runner 4 and a half years ago and my life has been blessed tremendously by this sport! It has brought many amazing friends into my life.....all of which I am truly grateful for. It has given me the strength and mental tenacity that I needed to live my life to the fullest. It's an awesome stress reliever, gives my mind peace to think, space to find creative solutions, and allows me to feel alive and strong. I hope to run until the day comes when I can no longer run. And I hope you find the joy of running in your own life!

Hi Cheree! Hope you can come out to the race! We decided that thrill hill might be a bit much for some folks for this year. Maybe next year we will add it in as an option. For instance, maybe after the race do a thrill hill sprint race or something for the fun of it! Thrill hill isn't far of the course though for those who want to check it out:)

Hi Cheree, No thrill hill isn't part of the course. I guess this is good or bad based on how challenging you wanted it to be. :)

I am interested in running in the Chattahoochee Smoochie, but I was wondering if Thrill Hill was part of the run.
