Atlanta, give Nike Coach Bennett a proper Southern welcome as his book tour makes a stop at West Stride on September 9th!
About this Event

We’re thrilled to welcome Nike Running Global Head Coach Chris Bennett to Atlanta and West Stride for an evening celebrating the release of his new book, This Is About Running. This Is Not About Running.

If you’ve ever listened to a Nike Run Club guided run, chances are Coach Bennett has been in your ear telling you that running is about a whole lot more than pace, miles, or finish times. That same idea is at the heart of his new book.

Coach Bennett is headed South, so naturally we’re going to give him a proper Southern welcome…good food, cold drinks, warm hospitality and a whole lot of Atlanta running love.

Doors open at 6:15 PM for food + drinks. The program begins at 7:00 PM.

Coach Bennett will share stories, nuggets of wisdom, and open up the floor for Q&A with a book signing to follow. Books are available for pre-purchase (see below) and at the event, while supplies last.

Whether you’ve been running for decades, are finding your way back to it, or haven’t taken your first step yet, all are welcome.

Come spend the evening with us. This might just be your starting line.
