I went for a walk with Nashville Mayor Karl Dean last night. I know, that makes me sound pretty important, right? But actually anyone can walk with the Mayor! His office has created a program called "Walk 100 Miles with the Mayor" which encourages all Nashvillians to get off their rumps and get a little exercise. No, we're not walking 100 miles at a time! Several times a week, the Mayor walks a few miles through the various parks and greenways in our beautiful city and he wants everyone to join him . Since the Mayor's walk last night coincided with East Nasty's regular Wednesday night meet-up, we all headed down to LP Field (home of the Tennessee Titans) to join in the fun.
I encourage everyone to try to make it to these walks. They vary in length; the one last night was 2 miles, but there are some 4-5 milers in the schedule as well. All of the walks build up to the final walk on July 9th, which is 9 miles.
