Smyrna, TN - The Town of Smyrna’s Annual Top Gun Night Run 6k benefiting the Captain Jeff Kuss USMC Memorial and Scholarship fund has been postponed to Friday, September 20, 2024, due to impending weather.
The 3.7 mile course includes the Smyrna/Rutherford County Airport, Smyrna Municipal Golf Course, and the finish line at the Captain Jeff Kuss USMC Memorial. The run is chip-timed, USATF certified, and limited to 650 participants. Participants can register online or in person at the Smyrna Parks and Recreation Department, located in the Smyrna Event Center at 100 Sam Ridley Parkway East.
Online registration information is available https://runsignup.com/Race/TN/Smyrna/TopGunNightRun6k. The $50 entry fee includes a t-shirt and a custom medal awarded at the finish line. Online registration is open through Wednesday, September 18.
All proceeds benefit the memorial and scholarship fund. “We encourage runners and walkers to register as soon as possible. The race sold out last year and we anticipate this again in 2024,” noted Smyrna Mayor Mary Esther Reed. “This event is family-friendly, with spectators and runners enjoying live music and food trucks in the park. Top Gun Night Run is a great opportunity to enjoy a festive atmosphere and the beauty of the memorial at night.”
