It’s not a pretty day outside, Nash. How many of you crazies out there ran the Country Music Marathon in the rain? Not only did you run more in a day than I’ve done in my life, you get free stuff because you did!
Free beer at 12th South Taproom &
free cookies at Fiddlecakes for runners!
(Make sure to bring your race bib, whatever that is.)
Now, for all of you who want to stay inside for the day, check out Brunch at Mad Donna’s (2 FOR ONE MIMOSAS?!?!?!), until 3pm.

For the brave crazies willing to endure the storm…
THE NAKED WITHOUT US MARKETPLACE IS STILL ON – RAIN OR SHINE!
