What is a 6.15K?
Instead of a traditional 5K, this year’s race will feature a “6.15K”—a fun nod to our local area code (615)! This means the race will be just 0.65 miles longer than a standard 5K, offering you more time to enjoy the sights and sounds of our incredible city.
Be A Run Nash Volunteer!
Our races would not be possible without the help of our dedicated volunteers. Please click a race for event details and available time slots/stations to sign-up for.

Travel
Close to Nashville attractions, but away from the late-night noise of Broadway, you’ll sleep well before race day.
