Visiting Atlanta's Buckhead area this weekend. Are there any good soft trails somewhat closeby for a Sunday 15? Thanks.

well, asphalt is soft relative to concrete. Therefore, there are plenty of places to run.
Roswell Area Park, or Chattahoochee River area
below is a google maps link showing a parking lot in north atlanta where you can run from. head north along the river for about 1.2 miles along the flat dirt path, when it starts to loop around, look on the right for entrances to dirt trails that run up a big hill. you will see small posts that have maps of the area...these trails lead to a pretty solid network of hilly terrain. one of my favorite places to run
I hope you're from the southeast. If not be prepared for some nasty humidity when you head out the door. Don't be surprised if you can see the air.
Drink lots of water. However much you drink it won't be enough.
save yourself and run on a teadmill. hills plus heat and humidity dont mix well. georgia sucks.
