Earlier this year, MYLAPS entered into a long-term partnership with Atlanta Track Club, bringing its cutting-edge <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mylaps.com\/timing-solutions-active\/bibtag\/\">BibTag<\/a> technology to all Club <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mylaps.com\/active-sports\/running\/\">running<\/a> events and youth programming. Supported by timing partner The Last Mile Racing, MYLAPS has powered all the Club\u2019s events in 2024.<\/p>\n<h6><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Supporting the Future of Athletics in Atlanta<\/span><\/h6>\n<p>&#8220;As a company with deep roots in Atlanta, we\u2019re proud to support the future of local athletics,&#8221; said Camiel Slaats, CEO of MYLAPS. &#8220;By contributing to the youth programming and community races, we\u2019re helping the next generation of athletes develop a lifelong love of sports.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The donation arrives at a time when Atlanta Track Club has seen record growth in participation across its youth events. The funds will continue to support Midweek Miles &amp; Dash events, which serve up to 3,000 kids annually, and cover timing services for the Club\u2019s free youth races.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis donation allows even more families to participate in a tradition that means so much to the Atlanta running community,\u201d said Rich Kenah, CEO of Atlanta Track Club. \u201cThanksgiving Day has long been a time for families to come together, and now, with the final youth event of the year being free, more kids can experience the joy of running on this special day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On Thanksgiving Day, each child will receive a commemorative item and medal. With only 1,000 spots available, registration is expected to reach capacity quickly. Parents are encouraged to join their children in the Mile as adults can also register for $20. The day of events also includes the Invesco QQQ Thanksgiving Day Half Marathon and 5K.<\/p>\n<p>The Thanksgiving Day Mile &amp; Dash marks the third race of the year to be made free for youth, following the Microsoft Peachtree Junior and the PNC Atlanta Mile &amp; Dash. The Peachtree Junior reached capacity with more than 3,000 participants.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Atlanta Track Club\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/strong><strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.atlantatrackclub.org\/\">Atlanta Track Club<\/a> is a nonprofit committed to creating an active and healthy Atlanta.
