About
The Cooper-Young 4-Miler is a classic Midtown tradition held in the streets of Cooper-Young the night before the Cooper-Young Festival. Runners will hit the streets of our historic, eclectic neighborhood for a one of a kind experience culminating in Trestlefest, a street party complete with Garibaldi's pizza, Memphis Made beer, and music by the Lucky 7 Brass Band. It's the perfect way to kick off CY Festival weekend.
