Make your dream to run or walk the Country Music Half Marathon on April 27, 2013 a reality. Join Health Plus as we partner with Gilda's Club of Nashville to offer a 16 week comprehensive training program designed to help you reach your goal.
Joining Gilda's Gang is a great way to get fit and give back to men, women and children in our community who are affected by cancer.
NEW this year, we also have a Mini-Marathon (2.6 miles) option, and the ever-popular Gilda's Groupies (NO training, just lots of fun on race day)!
Info sessions will be held at Gilda's Club on Nov. 20 at 5:30pm, and Nov. 28 at 1PM. Call the clubhouse (329-1124) to reserve your spot!
