(MURFREESBORO) It's almost that time... The annual SPECIAL KIDS RACE at Murfreesboro Medical Clinic (MMC) will be on March 7, 2020.

As in previous years, The Special Kids Race will take place at Murfreesboro Medical Clinic & Surgicenter, 1272 Garrison Drive. The firing of a cannon from Stones River Battlefield will start the 15K, 10K, and 5K courses.

The relatively flat run travels through Stones River Battlefield, and the 1-Mile distance loops behind Murfreesboro Medical Clinic to Old Nashville Hwy and back to the start/finish line.

The SPECIAL KID'S RACE is an annual fundraiser for the local nonprofit Special Kids Therapy & Nursing Center. It raises approximately 20% of the more than $1.5 million dollars needed annually to help keep operations up and running at Special Kids.

Race participants and teams, even individuals not running or walking, can additionally help children with special needs by joining "Impact Special Kids", an online fundraising community that helps supporters turn their creative fundraising ideas into a reality. Impact members can participate as individuals or create their own team.

Special Kids is a Christian therapy and nursing center for children with special needs. The Murfreesboro-based ministry started with one child in 1998 and has grown to serve over 3,700 children from 19 counties in middle Tennessee.
