Peachtree 10K

USA Track and Field will hold a new national-level road race this fall, with a total purse of $100,000 for elite competitors. The 12k event is the product of a three-year partnership between the federation and information and analytics company Neustar.

The new event, dubbed the .US National Road Racing Championships [sic] in reference to Neustar's role as the registrar of the .us Internet domain, will be the final race in the USA Running Circuit. The USATF has yet to announce a specific date or host city for the race.
