Country Music MarathonMusic City takes to the streets in aid of charity each year when
thousands of runners descend on the city to run the Country Music
Marathon (or a half marathon), vying for trophies and prizes. All
proceeds of the race, aside from the costs of putting on the event,
go to charity. The race is part of the Rock 'n Roll Marathon
series, and as such is well-organized and smoothly run. The runners
are encouraged by the strains of more than 50 bands belting out
their best from about two dozen stages Event Date: 27 April 2013 Venue: The marathon begins near Centennial Park in West End Avenue,
continues through downtown and finishes at the Coliseum Website: www.cmmarathon.com |
