YMCA Brickyard Run

The YMCA Brickyard Run in Hobart, Indiana, offers a 5-mile race, a 5K, and a 2K family fun run and walk. Race-day registration is open from 6 to 7 a.m. The 5-mile race begins at 7:30 a.m., followed by the 5K eight minutes later, and the 2K two minutes after that. Now in its 45th year, the event feels like a long-standing local tradition. The 5-mile race serves as a target for competitive runners, as it is part of the Calumet Region Striders Gold Cup. The 2K is untimed and non-competitive, suitable for families, walkers, and children. Discounts are available for runners aged 10 and under across all three events. The Brickyard Run is also part of the Triple Crown Challenge, alongside the Hub Run and Run for the Hills. Proceeds benefit the YMCA Income-Based Scholarship.
