Keep running. Every mile you log after the race, we'll donate $1 to one of the charities we work with! (Note that Fundraising is Optional)

Every year Oakhurst Cooperative Preschool (OCP) is proud to hold one of the best 5Ks for families in the Atlanta area. Started 18 years ago, our Beat the Street for Little Feet Race features a 5K, one-mile Fun Run, and Tot Trot. Everyone in the family can participate! Each year, James Dean, New York Times bestselling author and illustrator of the popular “Pete the Cat” picture books, creates an original Pete the Cat design for the race, which we feature on the T-shirts for participants. All race proceeds and donations benefit OCP!

OCP is a nonprofit, parent-teacher cooperative founded in 2005 with the goal of creating an ethnically, culturally, and economically diverse community that is united through its commitment to parental involvement in education and to fostering respect for the environment. OCP creates a “home away from home” for its families. In today’s mobile and global society, many families with young children lack the extended family support systems that existed during the more agrarian and less mobile culture of the past century.

The In-Person 5K has sold out, but you can be a part of Run Like Wild 2026 from wherever you are! Run with us virtually from home, the gym or on your own trail.

Virtual registration includes the T-shirt and race medal.
