Tennessee Running: Music City Melodies and Mountain Mist
Running in Tennessee provides an experience that is as diverse as the state’s cultural landscape, featuring events from world-renowned city marathons to challenging trail races in the Appalachian foothills. The state's premier race is the Rock 'n' Roll Nashville Marathon (and Half Marathon). This event is famous for its festive atmosphere, with live music and bands playing country, rock, and blues at nearly every mile marker along the course. Runners tour iconic Music City landmarks, including Music Row and the honky-tonks downtown, culminating in an energetic finish that truly embodies the spirit of Nashville.
The Cause and the Challenge: Memphis and the Foothills
In West Tennessee, the St. Jude Memphis Marathon Weekend is a highly meaningful and massive event. The race course runs through the historic streets of Memphis, past famous landmarks, but its true draw is the emotional and inspiring finish line on the campus of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Thousands run and walk this event every year to raise funds and awareness for the hospital's vital work.
For those who prefer scenery over city noise, East Tennessee offers breathtaking routes. The Great Smoky Mountains Half Marathon provides runners with a gorgeous, peaceful course on the doorstep of the national park near Townsend. The race is known for its sweeping panoramic views of the mountains, offering a picturesque challenge away from the metropolitan areas. Meanwhile, the Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon provides a thorough tour of East Tennessee’s largest city, including its beautiful neighborhoods and historic World's Fair Park.
