The Nashville Half Marathon, Marathon & 6.15K, produced by Run Nash, lines up on October 26, 2024.
First Horizon Bank has been announced as the new presenting sponsor ahead of this year’s event.
First Horizon Bank is also the official bank of the Nashville Half Marathon and the naming rights sponsor of the Nashville Sounds Baseball Club’s home stadium, First Horizon Park, where the running event’s start and finish lines are located.
“We’re excited to partner with First Horizon Bank as our presenting sponsor,” said Malain McCormick, Owner and Operator of Run Nash, producer of the Nashville Half Marathon presented by First Horizon Bank.
“Their deep roots in our community and support for our local running event truly reflect their ongoing commitment to the vibrancy of Nashville.”
Carol Yochem, Central Region President at First Horizon Bank, said “We are thrilled to be the presenting sponsor of the Nashville ½ Marathon, which not only celebrates the spirit of endurance and community but also promotes health and wellness.
“At First Horizon, we believe in in investing in our community and supporting initiatives that inspire people to lead active and fulfilling lives.”
The event is also partnering with Fleet Feet Nashville, the official training sponsor of the Nashville Half Marathon. Participants can sign up to join the Fleet Feet Running Club and train with other locals to prepare for their marathon, half marathon or 6.15K. Registration for the run club is currently open.
This year, the Nashville Half Marathon is debuting its new 6.15K course. This new distance was built to showcase some of Nashville’s locations, while also honouring the city’s area code (615). Participants of this new course will be taken on a tour that includes areas such as The Gulch, Downtown and Music Row.
The Nashville Half Marathon presented by First Horizon Bank will be offering additional race day features, including two stroller start waves, live music and DJs along the course, motivation miles and a finish line festival built with the post-run experience in mind.
The race organizers also ensured that the expo, finish line and official race hotel are all conveniently located in a compact area, so those visiting the city can manage their travel on race day without a car.
