East Nashville Tomato 5k
Remember to sign up for the East Nashville Tomato 5k. This is East Nasty’s adopted “homecoming” race, it supports our local Y, and the race is just the start of a great day in East Nashville (Tomato Fest Day…) Register here. (Also when you register put your team name as “East Nasty”)
Route #2
Right around mile 2 you'll be passing the East Nashville Farmer's market, the run may be a little congested at this point. Please be courteous and look out for kids!
While you're in the park, you may also get a glance of the potato to tomato training group hard at work.
Also there will be a special treat at 11th and Boscobel... Intrigued?
Calling all East Nasty women!
For the past 4 years East Nasty women have coached clients at The Next Door (www.thenextdoor.org ) in preparation for the Heroes in Recovery 6k in September. http://heroesinrecovery.com/heroes6k/leipers-fork-tn/
The residents have recently come out of incarceration and are in treatment for addiction and co-occurring disorders. Leading healthy lives through exercise is a HUGE part of their recovery!!
We will follow a Couch to "6K" training schedule.
Training Days and times:
6am Monday
6am Wednesday
8am Sunday
We need a minimum of 2 coaches per day. Committing to one day a week is ideal and a tremendous help!
Location: The Next Door, 402 22nd Ave N, Nashville, TN 37203
We will be doing a lot of training in Centennial Park and the surround area.
To see these women set a goal they can't even begin to think is attainable and KNOW through our training that they WILL cross that finish line is an experience beyond words for both the women and the coaches.
TRAINING STARTS MONDAY JULY 11 and ends at the Heroes 6k on SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 10.
PLEASE consider joining and be a significant part in changing lives through volunteerism.
Contact Heidi Huerta hphuerta@gmail.com with questions or to sign up no later than Wednesday, July 6th.
