NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Thousands of runners are heading to Nashville for the biggest race of the year.
The Saint Jude Rock 'n' Roll Marathon is this Saturday.
And today I wanted to let you know why you'll see a lot of folks over at Music City Center!
It's the first day that runners can pick up their packets! That's open from noon to 4 p.m. or you can head over there tomorrow between 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. if that works better for you.
The race is Saturday. The 5 and 10K's hit the pavement at 6:30 and the marathon and half start at 7:20.
If you're planning on driving anywhere near downtown this weekend, be sure to follow our traffic guide!

Breaking barriers and moving to the beat! One local dance company is making it possible for young people in wheelchairs to move and groove like everyone else. Good for your mental health, good for your physical health and good for your dose of positive news today. I hope you check out what they're doing!
