About the Crieve Hall Butterball Crawl
The Crieve Hall Butterball Crawl goes out on Thanksgiving morning from a baseball field in the Crieve Hall neighborhood, south of downtown Nashville. The route is a short, flat loop that works for all paces, and the Thanksgiving timing means the crowd tends to be a mix of regulars and visiting family dragged along for the occasion.
Pancakes and coffee are waiting at the finish, which is the right way to end a Thanksgiving morning run. The baseball field start keeps things simple: open space, easy to find, and no complicated staging.
