Marathon Weekend!
It's upon us! The Country Music Marathon and Half Marathon is this weekend!! Be sure to check out all the details below. Even if you're not running the race, there's always spectating, and afterwards, you can come to the post-race party Saturday night!
Race Day:
Be sure to plan ahead for parking. Since the start is now downtown, expect more traffic and more cars at LP Field. Check the schedule for parking HERE.
Start - Saturday - 7am
Run 26.2 or 13.1 miles!
Pace Groups
We’ve got several awesome East Nasties who have been training with you and will help you meet your pacing goals for the race. Look for these half marathon pacers to be holding white star mylar balloons that say “ENFL” on them.
Half Marathon Estimated finish times:
1:30 – Corral #1
1:45 – Corral #2
2:00 – Corral #13
2:15 – Corral #22
2:30 – Corral #30
East Nasty Picture - Meet at Letter "E"
Because of the pouring rain last year no one really stuck around for a picture. This year we're planning on having one! Once you finish your race, grab some fluids and go to the family reunion area. We will meet under the letter “E”. Hang around as long as you can to congratulate your fellow Nasties, and hopefully get a group photo.
Post Race Party:
6pm-10pm at Pavilion East.
Get ready for this excellent shindig after the race. We have some food, awards, and more! RSVP on the Facebook event so we can plan for food. We'll have Yazoo Beer and Edley's BBQ. Best of all - it's free! All ages are welcome, but IDs will be checked for those who want to drink. We will take a suggested $5 donation if you want to help offset the cost of the food/venue/etc.
I'm excited for everyone running and can't wait to run with you all and celebrate afterwards! See you Saturday. ENFL!!
