Wednesday May 30 - Stay out of the middle of the road!
Route #8
Tonight is Route #8: Rick's Market - which is not only run number 8, but also a figure 8.
We meet at the corner of 11th & Holly at 6pm. We run every Wednesday – rain or shine, hot or cold. You can READ HERE for more details on how our Wednesday night runs work. If you are a run/walker and/or want to get a head start, meet at 5:45pm and join our Lasty Nasty Group.
We're serious: Don't run in the middle of the road!
Every week we ask you all to stay to the left and run no more than 2 abreast, and every week some of you still run right out in the center of the road. Will you please help us be good citizens and neighbors and help maintain our club's standing in the community? Please don't open the club to scrutiny from the neighborhood and authorities and put us at risk by ignoring this simple request. If it's worth it to you to come out and run with us, all we ask is that you to follow our instructions. Thank you!
Potato to Tomato 2018 Couch-to-5k Training
East Nasty's mission is "to make East Nashville a great place to live and run, and to make running accessible to everyone in our community." One of the biggest ways we fulfill that is with our signature 'Potato-to-Tomato' free couch-to-5k training program. Well over 1,200 people have completed the program over the years and so many of you found your way to this great running community through our P2T program. And now it's back for the 9th year! This is the perfect opportunity to invite your novice runner friends, family, and co-workers to get moving and improve their fitness by training with a supportive encouraging group and our fantastic volunteer coaches. Get all of the info on our P2T page HERE.
