2011-2012 Tennessee State Parks Running Tour

2011-12 Running Tour Sets Record

It was a record year for the Tennessee State Parks Running Tour, as overall participation and many individual races set highest-ever levels of participation. Congratulations to all the Grand Prix champions in each category: Women’s Final Standings. Men’s Final Standings. Thanks to everyone who participated throughout the series. Big appreciation goes out to all the Race Directors and Volunteer Race Director Tomas Depaulis for an outstanding season.  We’ll look forward to seeing runners back to kick-off the 34th Running Tour for 2012-13 at Rock Island State Park in October.
