Walkers are welcome to participate in the Middle Half.

There are a few things you should consider, though, before you sign up.

Walkers MUST be at Mile 6 no later that 1-1/2 hours after the start of the race. We promised the City of Murfreesboro that the downtown streets would be open to traffic by then.

That means you must be able to average a 15-minute mile for 6 miles. If you’re not sure, try walking one mile in 15 minutes. It’s a very brisk pace. There will be a “Sag Wagon” this year to transport anyone who feels they cannot keep up this pace. Of course, you’ve got several months to build up to it if you’re not quite there yet. Keep moving!
