Racing for Sustainability.It’s our name and it’s what we’re doing. Join us - become a Racing for Sustainability Champion!   Have you ever:  Stepped on discarded cups during a race?                          Gotten an empty gel packet stuck on your shoe?                           Been handed a plastic bottle of water as you cross the finish line?                           Tossed that bottle into a trash can, along with your banana peel and chip bag?                           Shoved your race t-shirt in a drawer when you got home, never to be worn? Those are just the most obvious examples of a race’s environmental impact; there’s a lot more going on behind the scenes.  From local 5Ks to major marathons, the running industry generates a significant environmental footprint.

Ashland City Half Marathon

Ashland City, TN
The 6th annual Ashland City Half-Marathon will take place on Saturday March 7th, 2026 in Ashland City (20 minutes west of Nashville). The pancake flat, USATF-certfied course will go from Riverbluff Park and then take you on the beautiful Bicentennial Greenway, returning you alongside the Cumberland River on Chapmansboro Road. This is a loop many of the faster runners in the Nashville area have been using for time trials and tempo runs and is about as flat as you can get without doing a boring out and back race. In an effort to be more inclusive, in 2025 the course will only be open for 3 hours (13:44/mile). But please do not enter unless you are 100% confident you can cover the entire course in under 3 hours.
