Full Summer Fun Run & Walk Series
Description
The Parks Foundation of Hendricks County is excited to host the Summer Fun Run & Walk Series. If you love our parks, enjoy being outdoors, and are up for an active summer challenge, you’ll want to sign up and join us for a summer filled with scenic park views, plenty of sweaty miles, and of course—swag!
Your race entry of $35 for an individual and $100 for a family of four gives you access to safe and convenient racing at 12 Hendricks County Parks, an awesome t-shirt, and a great feeling of knowing you are supporting parks and trails in our community. The entry fee increases in May so make sure you sign up before the price increase!
Participating is easy, thanks to the virtual race time submissions and Racemaker Productions. Check out the schedule below and complete your run or walk during the designated dates listed for each park. Runners and walkers alike can enjoy the Summer Fun Run. And unlike most organized races, this event is dog and stroller-friendly.
