About the Mercy Medical Run
The race starts and finishes at Town Creek Park, with several distance options covering the roads around the park. The course is a straightforward out-and-back style with aid stations spaced through the route. All proceeds go to Mercy Medical Ministry, a free clinic staffed largely by volunteers that serves uninsured patients in the area.
Packet pickup runs the evening before at the Mercy Medical clinic itself, which gives you a chance to see the organization the race supports. On race morning, the main park lot handles most of the parking, with overflow across the street. Awards are handed out on site and must be claimed before you leave.

The Mercy Medical Run has been held every year since at least 2023. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Jul 27, 2026.
