RUNFONTANEL.COM
Join us on Saturday morning, June 15, 2019 for Nashville’s premiere 5K wooded trail race (run/walk) in the beautiful rolling hills of the Whites Creek Valley, just north of the Music City, Nashville, TN.
ON SATURDAY BEFORE FATHER'S DAY
It's an exciting, action-packed, half-day event, held each year at the Fontanel on the Saturday morning before Father’s Day. A perfect gift for dads (and granddads) and quite possibly a new Father’s Day weekend family tradition!
THE TRAIL AT FONTANEL
Come early for the 5K at 7 AM and run (or walk) one of the most pristine trails in Middle Tennessee with musical entertainment along the way.
WHAT'S INCLUDED?
You also get tasty snacks; cold bottled water; a Chick-fil-A continental breakfast; hot-air balloon rides (weather permitting); a chance to win fabulous awards & prizes; and a race t-shirt for each paid 5K entry. See the FAQ page for more info.
“The Fontanel 5k has been the best race in any of the last 14 states I ran so far!"
"The race director along with the crew were the most friendly and happy people I’ve met so far in a race. The course was awesome and of course the cherry on top was winning 1st place in my group and making our Uber driver a happy Father’s Day by giving him my $50 gift certificate I got for winning… What an unforgettable day!”
THE 5K @ FONTANEL IS CALLING YOU!
So get your game on, register today and join us to celebrate fatherhood and family while helping to raise support for boys whose fathers are absent from their lives.
(NOTE: Running strollers are NOT allowed in the 5k trail race due to the rough terrain and steep hills. However, they ARE allowed on the Fontanel grounds and during the Family Games).
ADDED FUN FOR THE FAMILY!
There are also fun Family Games at Fontanel immediately after the 5k awards ceremony. It's two separate – yet great events – both on one memorable morning! "
Come for the 5k and stay for the Games!"
This event is sponsored by the Family Foundation Fund, a non-profit organization based out of Nashville, TN whose mission for 27 years is to nurture at-risk young men from father-absent homes.
By providing them with mentoring programs and private education, they are equipped to become productive citizens who reinvest in their communities and the fathers who will impact the destiny of future generations.
