“So back in November, as we were looking at our plan, we knew that we were going to have to abandon our moniker,” said Atlanta Track Club Executive Director Rich Kenah. “Our moniker is the world’s largest 10K with 60,000 people. We wanted to focus on putting on, we wanted to focus on staging the world’s safest 10K.”

Kenah, who has led the Atlanta Track Club since 2014, was a guest on Monday’s edition of “Closer Look.”
