There's a Hampton and most other chains on exit 333, walnut ave./college drive straight shot to chatsworth. Let me know when you're here and we can cook or grab a beer.  7064830045 if you want more info. 

Chattanooga is half hour away for good eats/bars.

I'd put you up, but it'd be in the basement with no plumbing.

13 miles isn't far enough from Chatsworth. 

DaveRichardson

Tear Drop Half. Starts on a "mountain" and runs downhill for most of the 13.1 miles. 

Me - this fat boy don't run, except for beer.

Downhill for a half is tough brother.  Good luck to you better half!

I think she said it's like a 200 ft elevation drop total the entire distance. She did it last year and has one of her women's running group ladies joining her. Scenery is beautiful.

Have fun supporting her, good stuff.  200 ft., not so bad.  And don't trust @theyolksonyou!

Sorry, that's supposed to be 2000 ft drop....

Just another thought- have you looked into cabins in the area?

A place on Carters Lake would be nice.
