    The inaugural Murfreesboro Half Marathon is scheduled for September 22, 2007 at 7:00 a.m. in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. Because the 13.1-mile course runs by the geographic center of Tennessee, and begins and ends at Middle Tennessee State University, it has been tagged 'The Middle Half'. The proposed course goes through the middle of the state, by MTSU's Fraternity Row, and down scenic tree-lined Main Street. Runners will circle the Rutherford County Courthouse on the square, run to historic Oaklands Mansion where they will be cheered by onlookers in period costume', then finish in grand style by running the 'Lightning Bolt' on the MTSU track. The estimated elevation variation is only 45 feet, making the course flat and fast for the runners. The course will remain open for 3.5 hours.
