Race 13.1 is returning to Music City for the fourth Best Buddies Tennessee Race 13.1 Nashville half marathon, 10K and 5K! With a beautiful course that features many of the best parts of the city, and plenty of activities to fill your three-day Labor Day weekend before and after the race, this is a destination event runners won’t want to miss.
The race will start and finish at the Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park, which gives visitors a taste of Tennessee’s history, natural wonders and serves as a lasting monument to Tennessee’s Bicentennial Celebration, which was June 1, 1996. The mostly flat course will take runners on a route that will feature the historic Sulphur Dell area of downtown as well as the Nashville Farmer’s Market, the new Nashville Sounds ballpark, the picturesque Cumberland River Greenway, and Baptist Sports Park, which serves as the headquarters for the Tennessee Titans.
Race 13.1 Nashville Highlights:
– Flat, scenic course through downtown highlighting some of the Music City’s historic spots and picturesque greenway!
– Post-race party with music, beer and food!

Well ran as most 13.1 events are. Staff was ready to go and had no issues with check in and instructions for the responsibilities of pacing.
Would like to have seen more snacks, etc…. after the run. One pizza tent was not enough but for the number of participants perhaps it was not a big deal.
Runners back with me were in mostly good spirits and it was a pleasure to pace this race.
