Get Your Rear in Gear – Nashville is a casual untimed 5k run/walk along the Richland Creek Greenway to raise funds for and also awareness about colon cancer. Colon cancer patients and survivors have a special area, free entry and more. DJ, kids’ area, a special inflatable and more! There is also a kids’ fun run (250m dash) where all participants receive a medal. A special Blue Mile section will have tribute signs, and a video tribute to Melissa “Isse” Waddey, race founder, will be shown at 8:30AM. Everyone should be aware that colon cancer is the 2nd leading cause of cancer related deaths, but the most preventable type of cancer when screened. Leashed pets and strollers are welcome, but asked to start at the back of the race to not impede flow.
