Now that the registration window is opening for the 2016 Peachtree Road Race, I thought it would be useful to share the qualifying races that the Atlanta Track Club lists in the registration portal. This information is more difficult to find once the registration window closes later this month, but may be useful in the future for planning.
Races are listed by name, distance, location of start line (state of Georgia unless otherwise listed), and the month that the race is typically run.
MLK Day, 5K, Atlanta, January
Peachtree City, 5K or 10K, Peachtree City, January

The list of qualifying races may change from year to year. I didn't include some 2014 races that are on the list but were not run in 2015 and apparently are not planned for 2016, such as the Carterville 10K. Also, this is just the list posted in the registration portal by the Atlanta Track Club, but there are several other races run in metro Atlanta and hundreds of races in other parts of the country that are USATF certified. Your finish time in those races will presumably be accepted if you provide the USATF certified road race name, date, distance, and your finish time. The race must generally have been run in the past two years: for March 2016 entry, finish times back to January 1, 2014 are accepted.
