About the Miles for Milestones
Miles for Milestones is a fall road race in Knoxville put on by a therapy and wellness organization and a nonprofit nutrition foundation. Race day doubles as a fall festival, with a kids' dash, a costume contest, and a trick-or-treat setup alongside the main run. The course is timed, and walkers and runners share the same start.
The fundraising structure here is worth knowing before you register. Families connected to the therapy organization can form teams and direct the money they raise toward their own approved care needs. Runners who have no connection to those families can still participate, with proceeds going toward a therapy scholarship fund for families who could not otherwise access care.
