About the race

The Best Races’ Midtown Memphis events center around Overton Park on Poplar Avenue, offering 5K, 10K, and half-marathon distances. The atmosphere emphasizes a welcoming, low-stress vibe for runners and walkers of all paces and ages, with festive options such as themed editions. Courses run through the park area and adjacent streets, providing a neighborhood, urban-race feel.

The events use capped waves and no timing chips, prioritizing a relaxed experience while still allowing personal timing if desired. Perks include shirts mailed to registrants, finisher medals, towels or giveaways, online results, optional virtual runs, and involvement with charity initiatives and local running clubs.
