See race day planSame mindset that gets you to launch gets you to the finish line.
Powered by innovation. Run by community.
The Tech Race is Atlanta's inaugural community 5K — built for tech professionals, students, and founders who know that the same mindset that gets you to launch gets you to the finish line.
Wellness
Health as infrastructure, not a perk.
Innovation
Technology is a mindset, not a job title.
Community
Careers are built by showing up together.
Opportunity
Investment in the next generation of builders.
3.1 miles through the Westside BeltLine.
Starts on White Street SW, runs north to the Westside BeltLine, through the tunnel, U-turns before I-20, and finishes at the Great Lawn behind Wild Heaven Beer at Lee + White.
We are not building a race. We are building a movement.
We're building the nation's healthiest and most connected technology workforce — combining wellness, innovation, community, and opportunity into one scalable model, starting in Atlanta. The Tech Race is where it starts. It isn't where it ends.
A registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit
The founding board brings over 50 years combined in tech — across engineering, product, marketing, operations, community building, and driving outsized impact for Fortune 500 companies.
Four pillars. One body.
Wellness
Physical, mental, and emotional health as infrastructure — not a perk. The most innovative people perform at their highest when they are whole.
Innovation
Technology is a mindset. A way of solving problems, building systems, and creating futures that didn't exist before. That's exactly what The Tech Race is.
Community
The strongest movements are built in community. Not through networking — through showing up together, moving together, and investing in each other.
Opportunity
Educational access, workforce development, scholarships, and philanthropic investment. Finishing something hard should open doors — for you and for the person coming behind you.
The roadmap to a global movement.
The Tech Race
Atlanta's inaugural community 5K. The proof of concept that sets the standard for what's possible when the tech community moves together.
Building the healthiest technology community in the world, starting in Atlanta.
Upskilling & Access
Beyond the race. Panel discussions, workshops, and community events that connect tech professionals with the knowledge, networks, and access they need to grow. Coming in 2026.
Multi-City Expansion
The model goes national. Cities such as Dallas, Chicago, D.C., the Bay Area, and London get their own race, their own community, and their own identity — coded in their city.
Global Movement
Millions of innovators, architects, engineers, founders, and students — moving, connecting, and investing in each other worldwide. Building the healthiest technology community in the world.
Community is what makes the mission move.
The Tech Race is how we show up. The Body of Tech is why. Through wellness, innovation, community, and opportunity — we are building the healthiest technology community in the world, starting in Atlanta.
Everything lives at the intersection.
Everything we build lives at the intersection of these four pillars.
Wellness
Health as infrastructure.
Innovation
A mindset, not a title.
Community
Built by showing up.
Opportunity
Doors that open both ways.
