Renee,

The pasta dinner sounds like a nice option.. I'm interested, for sure! My friend Tonya and I will be driving up Friday morning from the Atlanta area, and going right to the expo. Maybe we could all meet up at the expo, and get pasta after?

Sidebar: All five the BTers on the full marathon race link are ladies Sounds like we could have a fun girls weekend!

This sounds like fun.  My girlfriend (who is also doing the full marathon) and I are driving up Friday morning or early afternoon.  We'd love to join some folks for pasta.  Meeting at the expo sounds good.

Address is
fyi, I have invited the 1/2 marathon folks...looks like we may be close to 20 or more but maybe not all at same time??

for those of you wanting to come or google address:

Hope Clinic for Women
1810 Hayes Street
Nashville TN 37203
my cell in case you get lost: 615-426-3061.

It is parallel to West End (where the race begins) and in between 18th and 19th street. It is in between Mambu Restaurant and DaVinci Pizza.

If you are coming off of Interstate 65 (coming north from Franklin) take the Broadway exit. Take left off the highway onto Broadway. Stay to the right and it will turn into West End. Take a right on 19th street. You will come to four way stop. You can see Hope Clinic on the right but if there is no parking on street go straight thru the stop sign and turn right into an alley (it is right before Royal Thai Express). My parking lot is the 3rd on the right...you will see a sign. Park there and just hit the buzzer downstairs and I will let you in. Go up one flight of stairs and down the hallway.

Don't worry we close at 2 pm on Friday so no one will be there but me..actually my business manager too b/c he is running the race too.

Hey folks..

what corral are you all??

I am 13 but trying to race with the 5 hr pace race team but am open if any of you trying to finish around that...I think the absolute best I could do is 4:45 but I have never run with teammates before so you may inspire me...

they are not super strict with where you start when we are that far back...

hopefully we can talk more at the dinner but we can also meet up in the morning, I can find a good landmark..

also are you folks going to try to do the concert after that night? or want to do something else??

plan for Friday is this:

Dinner available from 5 pm onward (try to show up between 5 and 7:30 pm) at my clinic...see previous post for address/directions. It is like 10 minutes from expo.

I am supplying pasta, meat and salad, water and coffee. It looks like others are bringing other beverages or desserts. If you want to chip in a few dollars for pasta dinner if you are not bringing anything that is fine.

I will have everything on sternos staying warm.

BUT A HEADCOUNT WILL HELP ME. I AM COOKING SAUCE AND MEAT TOMORROW SO NEED AN IDEA ON QUANTITY...JUST LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE COMING WITH ANYONE INCLUDING CHILDREN.

615-426-3061. Call me with questions.

If you have a different idea, please tell me before I buy everything tomorrow.

DIRECTIONS FROM EXPO TO MY PLACE:

Convention Center is on Broadway street. (right off of Interstate 40/65). If you are trying to park for expo, number of parking lots or some park at Reneisance Hotel and it links across).

Take a right on Broadway, going away from downtown (Gaylord Entertainment is across street), going back towards Interstate 65 and 40. Cross over interstate. Stay to the right. Broadway vears to left, staying to the right will become West End (start of course). Take a right on 18th street. You will come to 4 way stop (Hayes street) my clinic is on right hand side but if you don't see outside parking, go straight thru 4 way stop. Take a right into an alley (right before the Royal Thai Express Red awning). You will see the back parking lot for HOPE CLINIC FOR WOMEN on the right. Park there and buzz at door and I will let you in (I may just prop the door).

Go up one flight of stairs, go straight down hallway, go to the left into the 'living room' and you will hear us.
