THE EXPERIENCE
“Jean, you, your staff and the South Fulton Running Partners continue to excel at putting on one of the best races in the area...for us it’s like an annual reunion of family and friends. Thank you all for “Caring” for the Sickle Cell Community, a community that needs your care and attention so much.
Connie Sambrone, Finisher 2010 Sickle Cell Road Race
“I just wanted to applaud the team at the Sickle Cell Foundation of Georgia for a GREAT job of organizing Saturday's event. Everything was just a seamless process! The volunteers were absolutely awesome - just
positive and encouraging along the race way. Everything was just so quick and easy. Again my hats off to the entire team; JOB WELL DONE!”
Clarence L. Lyons, 2010 Sickle Cell Road Race
“I have missed the Sickle Cell Race in previous years. I vow not to miss another one. The race was organized, energetic and just plain fun. What a wonderful way to support a cause like Sickle Cell. The aerobics instructor really set the tone for the day. She is an asset to this race. Can't wait to see you next year. “

Delante Quarterman, Finisher 2010 Sickle Cell 7k Road Race
“I do participate in a lot of races now, but none are more generous, none are more fulfilling, none are more “felling of family” , none are more fun than the annual Sickle Cell 7k Race & 4k Walk... I would never even consider missing it”
Connie Sambrone, Finisher 2009 Sickle Cell Road Race
“It was a very nice race. it was good to see a lot of African Americans getting together. I don't see a lot of us doing distance races, like 5ks, so it was really nice seeing so many. The uphill finish was a surprise though!”
Shawanna White, 2009 Overall Female Winner 7k Race
“ This was my 2nd race ever. I really enjoyed it. It was peaceful, easy, and the camaraderie was great. I look forward to doing it again next year.”
Kenny Jones, Finisher 2009 7k Road Race
“ I loved it!. I do it every year. It's heart healthy. I like it because so many Black people are there and its a great physical activity for our community. I enjoy the food, and family atmosphere. I'm going to continue doing the walk for as long as I can. ”
Sandra Hall, Finisher 2009 4k Sickle Cell Walk
“From the warm up to the finish everyone is so nice, plus the race is great and well organized. Since I did my first Sickle Cell Walk 10 years ago, I haven't missed a year an don't want to miss one. As long as I can put one foot in front of the other, I'll keep on doing the Sickle Cell Walk”.
Margie Wimbish, 10th year Finisher 2008 Sickle Cell Walk
