Richland Creek Run

Posted by on Monday, March 26, 2018 in Archives, News.

For the 12th consecutive year, Vanderbilt University is supporting the Richland Creek Run which take place on Sat., Apr. 21, 2018. The certified 5-mile course takes runners and walkers through sections of the historic Sylvan Park neighborhood and on the beautiful Richland Creek Greenway. Founded and organized primarily by neighborhood volunteers, proceeds from the Richland Creek Run benefit Greenways for Nashville, the non-profit member organization dedicated to the creation, preservation, and promotion of Nashville and Davidson County’s greenway system.

Vanderbilt registrants may obtain a $5 discount with online registration through Sunday, April 1 by using the discount code RCR12VU. The registration site link is at www.richlandcreekrun.com.

The race begins and ends at the Cohn Learning Center, 4805 Park Avenue. Runners and walkers registered by April 6th will receive a collectible Richland Creek Run T-shirt. Race awards will be made for overall and category winners, and team prizes will be awarded for the largest, the fastest, and most spirited team. Registered runners and walkers are welcome to bring jogging strollers and their well-behaved, leashed, family dogs.

After the race, awards will be presented at the M.L.Rose Craft Beer & Burgers Charlotte Avenue location, where participants will enjoy specials on beer, door prizes, and the chance to bid on this year’s silent auction.

For just $10, you can also register kids for the Dinky Dash–a half-mile fun-run for children 12 and under. Dinky-Dash participants will receive a medal and a post-race Popsicle.
