i'm in nashville for the weekend, and am wondering if there are any good parks to run at....i'm doing my long run tomorrow morning so it'd be nice to find a park with a lot of trails. Thanks!

Percy Warner Park. Plenty of running trails, but the horse trails are where it's at, even though you're not supposed to run on them.
yeah, percy warner is a really nice area to run! there is a really nice 8 mile loop on the horse trails - the yellow trail. you can add-on on some of the smaller extensions off the horse loop if need be. when you get to the stone entrance of percy warner head up the road on the left side of the large stone steps. about a quarter mile up, there is a trailhead on the left. don't miss it though because there is no signage. the trail is quite wide though - easily running 2-3 abreast.
Percy Warner is located southwest of Nashville - only about 15 minutes from downtown by car.
Johnny C is right on the money but there are a lot of entrances to the park. Just to clarify he's referring to the entrance at the end of Belle Meade Blvd.
