Nashville and it’s bands were enjoyable. I do love a marathon adventure exploring the city !

I MUST admit the 1st half is FAR more scenic & has much more great live music.

The last half may try one's inner threads - but I did love running around some big ole lake around mile 21-22 or so.

And I will always have a big ole hug in my heart for the Nashville HashHouse Harriers. There was NOT enough race course food & I was flagging mightily. I literally fell at their station & pledged undying love forever for 2 cups of salty yummy Pepperidge Farm goldfish, 2 slippery sweet stix of licorice, a half of a mustardy hotdog plucked out of its little nestly bun, a Choco chip granola bar tucked in my bra to celebrate w/ later and a big ole cup of beer.... And had so much energy to get the last 2.5 miles tucked in!!
