Lace up your glowing shoes for the Light Up The Corners 4-Mile Glow Run on Saturday, August 15, 2026, in Peachtree Corners, GA. This highly anticipated community event transforms The Forum on Peachtree Parkway into a dazzling night-time running party, offering a unique experience for runners and walkers of all ages and paces. Participants will embark on a course brilliantly lined with blinking lights, receiving "glow bling" like LED safety arm bands and foam LED batons to illuminate their journey. While the race is more about the fun than setting speed records, typical race day conditions in mid-August see highs around 89°F and lows around 70°F, with a 16% chance of precipitation, making the evening start time (8:30 PM for the 4-mile) a welcome respite from the summer heat.

What truly sets Light Up The Corners apart is its vibrant atmosphere and heartwarming mission. This annual tradition is renowned for its festive energy, complete with contests for the "glowiest" individuals and teams, and a lively post-race party featuring food, drinks, music from a DJ, face painting, and roaming entertainers. Beyond the glowing spectacle, 100% of the proceeds benefit the Fowler YMCA's "Why it Matters" campaign, directly supporting at-risk children and families in the community. Whether you're tackling the 4-mile course or opting for the 1k Twilight Trot, this event promises a memorable evening of fitness, community spirit, and glowing fun, all for a great cause.
