I've only run on the treadmill at the Hilton but I'd love to try the outdoor track or roads and meet up with other runners (I'm a distance runner but not crazy long distance; I race anything 10K and under, mostly 5Ks). Wow, doing a race during Dragon*Con is hardcore. Interestingly, there's a low-key looking run called Atlanta Action Dash on Monday at 8 am where participants are encouraged to dress up like superheroes: http://www.actiondash.org/site/TR?fr_id=1040&pg=entry There's a 5K on Saturday too at 8:30 am, both of these are in Piedmont Park about 2 miles from the host hotel area: http://www.rungeorgia.com/legalrun5k.html I'm planning to do the parade on Saturday but might be tempted to hit a fun run dressed as a superhero, in the D*C spirit, on Monday.
