Runners can cool off mid-stride at the Waters of the World in Knoxville's World's Fair Park. The splash zone situated near the playground offers overheated joggers a rejuvenating dip, while keeping watch for kids dashing about. Laps around the fountains also provide views of the iconic Sunsphere tower perched at the park's edge. Waters of the World makes a refreshing, lively pit stop along Knoxville runs.
