Nashville, TN – Now in its fourth year, the Nashville Half & Full Marathon, presented by the Hard Rock Café, is the second largest marathon attended in Nashville. For the first time, the 2013 Nashville Half & Full Marathon presented by the Hard Rock Cafe will support United Way of Metropolitan Nashville.
Proceeds from the event will support United Way’s most critical events in the community; Days of Action – unparalleled, life-changing volunteer opportunities designed to make our community stronger.
Lifelong locals and out-of-towners alike will enjoy the race route, which takes runners through Nashville’s most beautiful and historic scenery.
