Brasstown Bald Buster

The Brasstown Bald Buster is a unique 5K road race taking place at Georgia's highest peak, featuring a challenging ascent of 1,700 feet over 3.1 miles. Hosted by Project 42 Running, the event welcomes participants of all skill levels, from competitive runners to casual walkers. In addition to the 5K, there is a Ruck division where participants carry weights, with specific weight requirements for men and women.

Prizes are awarded to the top three finishers in both categories. All participants receive a T-shirt and medal, with a scenic backdrop of the North Georgia mountains enhancing the experience. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
