Might as well run mc.It is not specified in the code. It is up to the inspector to decide if it is subject to physical damage which is open to interpretation. Some say above 8'. Some say higher. Some say it is always subject to damage. If you want to mitigate that, you could install wooden guard boards on either side and he'd probably consider it protected from damage. Or sleeve it. Or run it between some pipes.
