(MURFREESBORO) Saturday's (10/30/2021) weather brought temps in the low 50s with rain and a misty fog--but the weather did not dampen the spirit of the 10th Annual SPECIAL KIDS RACE at Murfreesboro Medical Clinic 15K, 10K, 5K and 1-mile fun run!
Rain or shine, the Special Kids Race is always beautiful, especially MMC pediatrics physicians Dr. Collins who oversaw the medical tent and Dr. Rickertsen greeted the runners with awesome gifts.
