Organized collaboratively by Congregation Micah, St. George's Episcopal Church, and Temple Ohabai Sholom, this beloved 5-mile untimed and timed event unites Middle Tennessee families in a shared morning of fitness and gratitude. The course travels down picturesque, tree-lined Belle Meade Boulevard, framed by historic estate architecture and vibrant autumn foliage, turning at the Percy Warner Park entrance before heading back. Staged at Temple Ohabai Sholom, participants enjoy live acoustic music, costumed turkey runners, complimentary hot cider, and water stations. Over its history, the race has raised millions of dollars directly supporting local Nashville agencies that combat homelessness.
