West Ponce 5K spotlights local culture and community
The West Ponce Music Stroll 5K returns for its fourth annual run this November in Decatur.
The event will offer a unique blend of movement, music, and neighborhood spirit in the heart of downtown. Hosted by Fleet Feet Decatur, the event celebrates the vibrant businesses and creative energy that define the West Ponce district. Proceeds will benefit Decatur Makers, a nonprofit dedicated to expanding access to STEAM education and hands-on community programming, particularly for underserved populations.
Participants will receive a race T-shirt and chip-timed results. Race-day check-in begins at 6:45 am, followed by a warm-up and announcements. The 5K starts promptly at 8:00 am, with post-race yoga at 9:00 am and a dance fitness session at 10:00 am, both led by Clarity Fitness.
After the run, the West Ponce Music Stroll will continue with a full slate of activities, including live music on multiple outdoor stages hosted by local businesses, sidewalk chalk art, an artist market, and a variety of food vendors.
For organizers planning races like this one, printing services can be helpful for producing race bibs and signage.
The West Ponce Music Stroll 5K takes place on Saturday, November 16 from 8:00 am to 11:30 am, at 431 West Ponce de Leon Ave, Suite #1, Decatur. Packet pickup will be held the day before from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm at Fleet Feet Decatur. Additional details are available through the event listing.
