Join us for the Second Annual Rowdy RALPH Run! We had such a great time and successful race last year, we're doing it again. This year we're growing the race. We'll have a 10K, 5K and Family Fun Run...not to mention the moon walks to make it even more family friendly!
All proceeds for this event will go towards YoungLife North Fulton...Roswell / ALPHaretta. This promises to be a lot of fun as we run with the community, local high school cross country teams, and everyone else in RALPH! Please show your support and come get Rowdy at the Rowdy RALPH Run!
We're also teaming with Land of a Thousand Hills Coffee House to "do good." We'll be collecting new or slightly used pairs of shoes to send to Rwanda to those less fortunate than ourselves. A worn pair of shoes to a runner can be a welcome upgrade for one without.
The Rowdy RALPH is part of the Run & See Georgia Grand Prix Series

What is the Course Like?
The race takes place in downtown Alpharetta, GA and will begin and end at Wills Park (see map at the bottom of the website). This is a very fast and enjoyable course taking you from the park, past Legion Field, past the old Milton High School and the log cabin, through downtown and back to the park.
Parking:
There is plenty of it at Wills Park - park near the pool or baseball fields
