About

The Whiskey Run takes place in Memphis, in Shelby County, Tennessee, in early May. It offers a half marathon (13.1 miles) with roughly 289 feet of climbing, a 10K with about 144 feet and a 5K with about 105 feet, so even the longest race stays gently rolling. A whiskey celebration awaits runners at the finish.

Memphis in early May is typically warm and can be humid, so start hydrated and ease into the first miles. After the race, you can visit Graceland, walk Beale Street, known for its blues clubs, take the family to the Memphis Zoo or the Pink Palace Museum, or book a cruise on the Mississippi.
