The TDOC 5K is a must do for history buffs. It’s held on the campus of the historic TN state prison. The prison has been used to as a location for several films including The Green Mile. It’s normally a closed location but they open the campus for some brief looks at the old prison as part of this event. It’s worth doing the 5K just to get to get to hear the history talks and get a look at the old prison. There’s no medal and the race communication is sometimes lacking, but if you get the chance, just go. It’s well worth the time.
