Coffee Lover Run MEMPHIS
Coffee Lover Run MEMPHIS is a community running event held at Riverwalk in Memphis, TN 38103. The event offers in-person and virtual options and includes a family fun run alongside multiple distance choices.
Distances:
- 5K
- 10K
- 13.1 Half-Marathon
- Family 1 Mile Fun Run
- Virtual Run
The event is organized as a smaller, capped field with multiple waves to limit crowding. Waves close when full; a waitlist and a virtual option are available once waves sell out. Registration fees are listed with mandatory charges included.
Timing is optional and there are no timing chips. Participants may track runs with common apps such as Strava, RunKeeper, or Nike Run and submit their results for posting. Coordinators remain on site for a period after the first wave.
Swag and race materials are shipped rather than picked up. Registered participants receive a running T-shirt shipped within the U.S., a finisher's medal, a virtual training plan emailed before the run, an online certificate of completion, and an invitation to join a local running club. A lightweight technical shirt upgrade is available for an additional five dollars. Race bibs are distributed on race day.
Final participant information and course maps are sent to registrants the Wednesday before race day. The event notes that shipping for last-minute registrations may arrive after race day. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
