Nashville Recovery Run 5k 2026

The Nashville Recovery Run 5k is a run/walk held at Shelby Park in Nashville, with the start and finish located within the park. This marks the race's fourth annual running. It begins in the morning, following race-day registration and a brief sponsor welcome. The event is centered on the local recovery community, uniting individuals connected to alcohol and drug recovery throughout the Nashville area. The course is a simple 5k, and walkers are integral to the event. Proceeds support individuals in the Nashville Metropolitan Area in receiving treatment and care, including contributions to a Recovery Unplugged scholarship fund for patients facing financial need. Following the run, the morning includes awards, acknowledgments, and several hours dedicated to socializing. Dogs are permitted on the course; participants with dogs are asked to begin at the back of the field.
