Women's Running Festival featuring a Half Marathon, 10K, & 5K

The Women's Running Festival, a women-only race day in Carmel, Indiana, is held at the Carmel Courthouse Gazebo. It offers half marathon, 10K, and 5K distances, featuring Indiana's original women's half marathon and the state's largest women-only half marathon. The routes follow the Monon Greenway through Midtown and Central Park, then utilize nearby city streets before finishing back at the gazebo. In a recent edition, participants came from over 30 states. The half marathon awards a cash purse to the top 20 finishers. The 10K and 5K races have podiums, and age-group awards are also presented. Runners receive free parking, complimentary food and beverages at the post-race gathering, and support for women-focused charities. The location is adjacent to shops and restaurants.

Running for Children's Rights to Both Parents - 11 of 50 Half Marathons in 50 States - Indiana

The Indiana event for Running for Children's Rights to Both Parents begins at 18 North Capitol Avenue in Indianapolis. Participants can complete an in-person half marathon between morning and midnight Eastern Time. This is Run 11 of a 50-state half marathon series, with one half marathon held each month. The event also provides virtual 5K, 10K, and half marathon options, allowing supporters outside Indiana to participate by running, walking, or moving within their own communities. Virtual runners do not have a shared course; each participant selects a local route while supporting the same cause. Bob, the founder of Mothers and Fathers Truly Matter, runs the Indiana half marathon in person, while supporters nationwide participate remotely. The series aims to raise awareness about parental alienation, family court practices that separate children from a parent, and the lasting emotional, psychological, and developmental harm that can result. The core message is that children should have reasonable access to both parents, and family court decisions should prioritize the child's well-being.

Turkey Trails- Indianapolis

Turkey Trails - Indianapolis is a Thanksgiving-themed trail race held at Washington Township Park in Avon, Indiana, west of Indianapolis. Participants can choose from a 5K, 10K, or half marathon, plus an untimed 1-mile option and a kids dash for those 10 and under. This annual, family-friendly event is centered around the holiday season, encouraging costumes and offering youth pricing for the 5K and 10K. The routes are set within the park's natural terrain, offering a more relaxed trail outing compared to a large city road race. Runners receive chip timing, live results, awards, complimentary photos, a performance shirt, and a custom medal. The finish area provides post-run refreshments. The kids dash is free without the shirt-and-medal package, and a virtual option allows participation remotely while still receiving race merchandise.

Sam Costa Half Marathon and Quarter Marathon - presented by Indy Runners and Walkers

The Sam Costa Half Marathon and Quarter Marathon begins at 9:00 a.m. from Northview Church on Hazel Dell Parkway in Carmel, Indiana.

Organizers consider it Indiana’s oldest race tradition, attracting participants from around the U.S. for over five decades. The event accommodates new runners, seasoned racers, age-group contenders, and division challengers, with refreshments and facilities provided at the church.

Muncie seasons give runners and riders four real blocks to train around. Spring and fall feel best for base miles, intervals, crit prep, gran fondo fitness, and longer Greenway days. Summer brings humid continental weather, so locals start early and keep bottles close.

Runners lean on short named loops like Around the block and FUN RUN, while cyclists keep dawn-to-dusk Greenway access in mind and save bigger efforts for clear days.
