  • Comments: This is the warmest day the race has ever had; if I feel this good after that, watch out next year! The only suggestion I would make to the organizers is to emphasize to folks to leave space on the left for people to pass. Everything else was top notch. Honestly, I don't remember much about the in-race music or cheerleaders. I know they were there, and it contributed to a fun atmosphere, but I was too locked-in to really pay much attention.

  • Comments: This is the third time I've done Nashville in the past 5 years. The city really turns out a great race, and the crowd support is awesome. I can't say enough good things about this race. Top Notch! Even though I didn't PR, I was pleased with my performance. I changed my training around the past couple of months with the addition of yoga and plyometrics and could see a difference. I was relaxed and maintained good form throughout the race.

  • Comments: The heat was huge factor. The hottest of the 10 years this race was ran. Event management stepped up and increased the drink stations to make sure everyone had a safe day. I did find that either they didn't plan parking properly or people were just stupid. Many folks were parked illegally, some even on the entrance ramp to the interstate. The cops were rapidly writing tickets and towing cars.
