Lucy 115
The Lucy 115 Bike Ride
Saturday, April 26
Nashville, TN to Sewanee, TN
In 2014, a small group of mostly Sewanee alumni cycled 115 miles from Nashville, TN to Sewanee, TN. What began on a whim has become an eagerly anticipated annual event. The ride has grown each year with additional riders, support and gear (SAG) teams, and fans awaiting the riders at the finish line.
The 11th Lucy 115 will take place on April 26, 2025, in memory of Lucy Williford, the young daughter of Judson and Leah Williford. The Lucy 115 supports The Forrest Spence Fund (FSF), headquartered in Memphis, TN, with services provided throughout the state and beyond. Our goal is to have 25 riders each raising at least $1,000.

Northwestern Mutual Bourbon and Blues
At Northwestern Mutual, we believe in protecting what matters most, and nothing matters more than the health and hope of children facing serious medical challenges. We are proud to support the Forrest Spence Fund's mission to provide critical assistance to families battling childhood illness.
Our commitment goes beyond financial planning—it's about planning for hope. We understand that when a child is sick, a family needs more than medical support. Join us at our second annual Bourbon and Blue event, and t
ogether, we can make a difference—one family, one child at a time. Thank you for helping us turn compassion into action.
