About the Free to Move 5K
This race honors a Nashville runner who was killed while out on a routine run, and that history is present in every part of the morning. The course follows a well-traveled trail in the city, the kind of route she ran herself. The cause behind it is women's safety and empowerment, and the field tends to reflect that seriousness of purpose.
